Hobby Curcurbita

Hobby Curcurbita is a purely plant-based, natural product designed for natural water care and decoration in aquariums. The dried husk of a small ornamental squash (Cucurbita spec.) releases natural humic substances and tannins into the aquarium water over several weeks. As a result, Curcurbita promotes a mild, natural aquarium environment, similar to that found in many tropical habitats. Hobby Curcurbita is particularly well-suited for shrimp aquariums, biotope aquariums, blackwater tanks, and aquariums with more sensitive ornamental fish. The natural compounds are released slowly and evenly, so the water is not altered abruptly. At the same time, a slight amber tint may develop in the water, which looks very natural and complements roots, driftwood, rocks, and densely planted aquariums particularly well.

In addition to its water-conditioning effect, Curcurbita is also very visually appealing. Its natural shape and textured surface make each piece a unique eye-catcher in the aquarium. Shrimp, snails, and other invertebrates like to use the surface as a grazing area, where a biofilm can form over time. Hobby Curcurbita also works very well as a natural decoration in paludariums and terrariums.

How to use Hobby Curcurbita:
Simply place Hobby Curcurbita directly into the aquarium. After a short time, this natural product will begin to sink and then slowly release its natural compounds into the water. For an aquarium with a capacity of approximately 50 liters, the manufacturer recommends 1-2 pieces. After about 4 weeks, Curcurbita should be replaced with a new piece.
