Cave meets Moss Pad: The ShrimpPuddle Moss Pad Cave is the first product to combine two of our most successful product lines. While classic caves offer a great base for ferns and epiphytes, they quickly reach their limits with mosses. The Moss Pad Cave perfectly fills this gap. It serves as a protected retreat for your dwarf shrimp and dwarf crayfish on the inside and transforms into a lush green, living grazing area on the outside.

Your advantages at a glance:

• Double benefit for invertebrates: The Cave combines the protective properties of a hiding cave with the functionality of a moss pad. Especially after molting or for pregnant females, these darkened protective zones are vital.
• Effortless handling without glue or thread: Beginners often struggle with tying or gluing mosses. A thread that's too loose comes undone, too much superglue can kill the plant completely. With the Moss Pad Cave, it's now: Open the lid, place the moss inside, close the lid, and you're done!
• Ingenious, reversible click-on lid: Absolutely well thought out for every plant structure! Depending on which way you place the lid, the grid offers either a 1 mm gap for fine moss species (e.g., Fissidens) or a generous 2 mm space for coarser mosses and small ferns.
• Essential habitat: Moss surfaces are indispensable in shrimp keeping. They trap suspended particles and offer a huge colonization area for beneficial microorganisms, which are continuously grazed by your animals.
