Aquatic Aguna Pods – Natural Botanicals for Beautiful and Balanced Aquariums
Safe for all fish and invertebrates | Pack of 6
Bring a touch of the rainforest to your aquarium with Aquatic Aguna Pods. Sourced from the Aguna tree species found in tropical regions, these distinctively shaped seed pods are hand-collected after naturally falling, then thoroughly cleaned and sun-dried to preserve their structure and color. Each pod is completely natural, chemical-free, and safe for all aquarium inhabitants.
Why Aguna Pods Are Beneficial for Aquariums
Aguna Pods offer both aesthetic and biological benefits, making them a favorite among aquascapers and shrimp keepers. Once added to your aquarium, they slowly release beneficial tannins and humic substances that help:
-
Improve water quality and promote natural, healthy conditions
-
Provide mild antibacterial and antifungal support
-
Slightly soften water and enhance its natural tint
-
Create a soothing, low-stress environment for fish and shrimp
Their hollow, cup-like structure provides excellent hiding and breeding spots for shrimp and small fish, while also serving as a surface for biofilm growth—a nutritious grazing area for shrimp, snails, and plecos.
How to Use Aguna Pods
To prepare and add Aguna Pods to your aquarium:
-
Rinse Thoroughly – Rinse under warm water to remove dust or loose debris.
-
Pre-Soak (Recommended) – Soak in hot or warm water for several hours (or overnight) to help them sink faster and start tannin release.
-
Place in Aquarium – Add directly to your tank as natural décor or to your filter compartment for gradual water conditioning.
Use one or more pods depending on your tank size and desired water tint.
Note: Each Aguna Pod is unique in shape, size, and tone. Because they are a fully natural product, variations are normal and enhance their authentic, organic look in your aquascape.
