POS42G Skull S Glow 9.7x13x9.8 — Small glow-finish skull ornament with hiding holes for nano and betta tanks
Small tanks need small decor, and a skull with open eye sockets gives a betta or a group of shrimp something to explore without filling the whole footprint. POS42G Skull S Glow 9.7x13x9.8 (SKU: SS09G) is the small size of a skull-shaped aquarium ornament with a glow finish, measuring about 9.7 × 13 × 9.8 cm. Its hollow interior and openings give small fish a place to hide, rest and swim through, and the glow finish makes it a focal point in a compact layout.
At under 10 cm high it suits nano, desktop and betta aquariums from about 20 litres, and in a larger tank it can sit in the foreground or be grouped with other themed pieces. Bettas often rest inside cave ornaments like this, and shrimp, small loaches and pygmy corydoras use the openings as cover. Long-finned fish can tear fins on rough edges, so run a stocking or soft cloth over the openings before placing it; anything that snags should be smoothed or the ornament placed in a tank without long-finned fish. View it under the usual aquarium lighting before fixing its position, as the glow finish depends on the light around it. Rinse in plain water before use and clean with a soft brush in tank water during maintenance, never soap or bleach. Siphon around it at water changes, as small caves trap uneaten food. A medium size of the same design is made under supplier code POS43G.
