• These miniature pine cones make a charming decoration in any aquarium, but they also serve some very useful purposes. Like cholla wood, alder cones are a fantastic and natural way to lower and buffer pH. We use alder cones in many of our low-pH tanks.  dwarf shrimp particularly love to graze for biofilm on the surfaces of the cones. If you plan to use alder cones to lower your pH levels, we advise starting with a small number of cones and monitoring the pH before adding more. If you want to avoid excess tannins (which can cause your water to turn yellow or brown), you can also boil the cones before use. The cones may take one to two days to sink to the bottom of your tank.
