Ideal for

The 3-hole coconut cave with Java moss is perfect for shrimp aquariums, where shrimp love to forage and hide among the moss. Small fish like bettas, dwarf cichlids, and livebearers also appreciate these hiding places. The coconut cave fits perfectly into natural aquascapes, biotope aquariums, and Dutch-style layouts.

Care & Placement

Rinse the coconut cave gently under lukewarm water before placing it in your aquarium. Place the cave in a stable spot in your aquarium, for example, between rocks or half-buried in the substrate for a natural look. Java moss grows best in normal to bright light and does not require CO2 supplementation, although this does accelerate growth.

Trim the moss regularly to maintain the desired shape and prevent it from becoming too dense. You can use the trimmed pieces to plant other decorations. Occasionally remove loose moss particles that collect among the moss to keep the cave fresh and healthy.
