Description
These Turkish hazel fruit clusters are harvested in the Schönbuch region and the northern part of the Black Forest in southwestern Germany. They are harvested directly from the trees and then carefully air-dried, so an optimum quality is ensured.
The woody, ripe fruit clusters of the Turkish hazel (Corylus colurna), a tree-shaped hazel species, are called "Hexennüsse" ("witch nuts") in German. They are versatile in aquaristics thanks to their specific character.
Please note: It may occur that the actual fruits (nuts) still stuck in the husks of the fruit clusters, possibly beginning to rot sometime under water. Therefore we recommend to remove nuts from the husks before the clusters are used in aquariums.
Features
- The clusters provide a lot of hiding places for shrimps and crayfishes, especially their offspring
- Natural aquarium decoration
- They release humic substances into the water
- Contribute to the well-being of the aquarium inhabitants
- TheTurkish hazel is purely a decorative object and not suitable as food
Usage
If there are still nuts in the husks, pull them out before the clusters are taken into the aquarium. It is recommendable to blanch the Turkish hazelnut clusters with boiling water in order to make them better sink. Otherwise it takes some patience until they sink in the aquarium.
Content
Ripe fruit clusters of the Turkish hazel (Corylus colurna), dried, in a resealable zip bag for ideal stock-keeping.
For the Nano version, extra small pieces are selected.

Harter Kampf !
Sehen wirklich super aus , allerdings ist das entfernen der Früchte ein ganz schöner Akt , hab`s mit Kombizange und einem kleinen Schrauberzieher geschafft , kleiner Tip die Früchte am Besten erst entfernen wenn man sie mit kochendem Wasser übergossen hat geht dann bedeutend einfacher ! Gehen danach auch relativ schnell unter !
The witch nuts not only look exciting, my shrimp love them. I've rarely seen so many of my neos in one spot (I have a fairly large tank, so normally you only see 1 or 2 close... (read more)

Bin begeistert 👍🏻
Die Hexennüsse sehen nicht nur spannend aus, meine Garnelen lieben sie. Habe selten so viele meiner Nelis auf einem Fleck gesehen (habe ein recht großes Becken, daher sieht man normalerweise nur 1 oder 2 nah beieinander).
Mich haben sie überzeugt 👍🏻
I had ordered witch nuts for my nano from another seller; those did still come with the nuts, but I figure tank inhabitants can't do anything with those anyway. (read more)

Super Qualität
Hatte für mein Nano bei einem anderen Anbieter Hexennüsse bestellt, bei denen waren zwar noch die Nüsse dabei, aber mit denen denke ich können Aquarienbewohner sowieso nichts anfangen. Die von Aquasabi gelieferten Hexennüsse machen da einen wesentlich besseren und frischeren Eindruck. Werde sicherlich wieder welche bestellen.
