Alder cones / Alder cones DRAK

For up to 1.000 l

  • Ideal for tropical aquarium fish
  • Particularly recommended for heavily stocked aquariums
  • Dried alder cones / alder cones matured on the tree
  • Prevents mould and infections
  • Natural mucous membrane protection thanks to humic and tanning agents
  • Particularly suitable for nano tanks due to their small size

The black alder (Alnus glutinosa) is a tree up to 25 metres tall with black bark that can be found along ditches, streams and riverbanks. Its woody fruit stems, which are rich in humic substances and acids, have been used for decades in aquariums to enrich breeding stock with humic substances or to reduce hardness. The strong brown colouration of the water that occurs in the process is quite helpful, depending on the intended use.

If, for various reasons, you do not wish to have the alder cones, which are quite decorative in themselves, in your aquarium, you can prepare an alder extract in advance.

Application
Add approx. 4 - 6 alder cones per 100 litres of aquarium water directly into the aquarium
Repeat application every 2 weeks and after every water change
When stored in a dry place, the alder cones will keep indefinitely

Contents
40 cones

Für Trigonostigma espei & hengeli

Meine Trigonostigma Espei und Hengeli, insgesamt 143 Tiere (beim Leeren des Beckens gezählt) im 300 L Becken mögen diese Huminstoffe, zeigen schöne Farben und vermehren sich.Der Schwarm ist sehr groß geworden, Anfangs waren es nur 20 Tiere. Benutze in dem Becken von Bodengrund (Poolfiltersand 0,7-1,2 mit Terrdrakon) bis zur Düngung/Aufhärtung nur Drak Produkte.

Zur Huminansäuerung/Herstellung verwendet

Bekamm in der Apotheke allerdings nur Benzoesäure zum Extrak herstellen. Erfüllt seine Zweck als Konservervierungsstoff und bin zufrieden.
