Keruing Pods

Keruing Pods (3 Pack) – Giant Thai Helicopter Seedpods for Aquascaping & Shrimp Tanks

Keruing Pods—also known as the Thai Giant Helicopter Seedpods—are dramatic, sculptural botanicals perfect for creating a striking natural centerpiece in aquariums, paludariums, and terrariums. With their iconic winged shape and bold texture, these pods add instant character while supporting healthy biofilm growth for shrimp and microfauna.

Key Benefits

• Unique Helicopter Wing Shape
  These large, curved seed wings add a dynamic, forest-floor aesthetic to blackwater aquariums, botanical setups, and nature-style scapes.
• Excellent for Shrimp & Microfauna
  The textured surfaces of Keruing Pods host steady biofilm development, providing natural grazing areas for Caridina and Neocaridina shrimp, as well as fry.
• Long-Lasting Hardscape Element
  Their thick, durable structure means they break down very slowly, making them a reliable, long-term botanical feature.
• Mild Tannin Release
  Adds subtle tannins that support soft-water species without heavily tinting the water.
• Perfect for Aquariums, Paludariums & Terrariums
  Beautiful in submerged, partially submerged, or dry bioactive environments.

Pack Details

Each pack contains 3 Keruing Pods. Natural variation in size, curvature, and color is expected, as each pod is uniquely formed by nature.

How to Use

Rinse well and soak in warm water for several hours to encourage sinking. Pods may initially float but will waterlog over time. Replace only after full breakdown, which may take months.
