Dwarves’ revolt^*

The new Tropical Almond Bark of the family-run company aquamax is now also available from us in a size especially suitable for nano-aquariums.

(* from Ancient Greek [ηαηος - nános] “dwarf”)

The effect is similar to but much stronger than tropical almond leaves. In addition, the bark pieces, which are a similar shape to cinnamon sticks (and also produced in a similar way), are very attractive and can be left in the tank after the main effect has worn off.

Dozens of people in Sri Lanka now make a living from harvesting and processing this high quality natural product. For aquarium owners, especially for friends of invertebrates, the tropical almond bark is an effective highlight in the aquarium. Compared with tropical almond leaves and other natural products containing tannins, the bark has additional properties:
The bark is relatively heavy and sinks after a short timed, rots extremely slowly and has a more intensive effect.
For prawns, snails and small fish, the bark not only effectively protects mucous membranes against bacteria but protects also offers the creatures opportunities to hide and withdraw.

The optimum dosage of tropical almond bark was developed together with dedicated users of aquamax.de.
