This ISTA ceramic decor piece creates a natural hiding and breeding spot for pleco and catfish, and can be dressed with moss for extra beauty.
Features:
Size: 17x8x5.5cm
Dimensions: 17 × 8 × 5.5 cm
Material: natural clay, unglazed (a surface bacteria will colonise)
Intended for: plecos, catfish and other cave spawners
Effect on water: none adverse; the clay surface adds biological filtration
Set it on the substrate where a bottom-dweller can get into it and still see out. Plecos and other catfish use a tube like this both as a daytime refuge and as a spawning site.
Moss ties onto it readily, and once it is grown in it stops looking like an ornament.
Natural clay, so it colonises with bacteria the way a ceramic biomedium does. It will not fade and it does not affect water chemistry.
Every batch we dispatch carries a minimum of 6 months’ remaining shelf life. Store this product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, with the cap or inner foil closed tightly after each use.
Filter media and substrates carry no manufacturing or expiry date. Their working life begins on first contact with water, not on the shelf.

I find it really good. I have a L333 pleco and it spends all of its time inside it. It just loves it. Initially it wasn’t liking it that much… but after redecration of the aquarium, it loves hanging out in this. Earlier, corydoras were also having fun inside it. But I would recommend it for plecos. It is great.
