This is an original cocoon item that was carefully baked in the kiln mothers of Mashiko town in Haga County, Tochigi Prefecture, famous for Mashiko Ware. This item is designed to be inspired by fallen leaves deposited on the bottom of the river, and can be used as an egg bed or shelter for dwarf cyclids such as apistic grama. The rich green color is like moss and the color makes you feel the lonely wabi lonely which is a symbol of Japanese aesthetics. In addition, the rustic appearance of Mashiko ware is attractive, so it matches naturally with the layout of the breeding tank. This version has changed the entrance to a round hole. This makes territory awareness stronger and provides one cushion to prevent outside intrusion. The simple internal structure is also useful for sending fresh water to eggs and newborn farms. The two small holes on the top are opened to deflate the air accumulated inside, but you can use a bin tie to wrap up aquatic plants such as microsolium and volbitis. In that case, we recommend the brown vinyl tie with a PET tie (Japanese-style / Brown) cutter that is hard to stand out in the aquarium. We invite you to try this item that combines functionality and design.
