The Coconut Arch is a natural coconut shell shaped into an arched bridge structure with live Java moss growing across its surface. It creates a distinctive organic-looking feature that functions as both a visual element and a practical shelter for fish and shrimp. The natural material and living moss combine to produce an appearance that integrates naturally into planted aquariums of all styles.
Java moss is one of the most low-maintenance aquarium plants available. It grows in low to medium light without CO2 injection and tolerates a wide range of water conditions. The moss will slowly spread and increase its coverage over the coconut surface over time. Shrimp are particularly attracted to moss — they graze on it constantly and use it for shelter and breeding.
The moss is pre-established on the coconut arch so no further attachment is needed — simply rinse and place in the tank. Fish and shrimp will readily use the arch as a shelter and swimming route. The coconut may release some natural tannins initially, which is harmless and settles over time. Suitable for aquariums of 20 litres and above.

Natural coconut arch with Java moss that provides shelter for fish and shrimp. Customers said "fish love swimming through it" and praised the "lovely quality" and fast delivery. The moss grows well and adds attractive greenery to tanks. One customer reported moss detaching and blocking their filter. Some noted it's smaller than expected.
Had it for a couple month now and still going strong, not a bad size for the money.
Lovely quality ,fish love it,would recommend.
Not only does this arch look cool, but my fish love swimming through it or resting under it, especially my catfish.
Received quickly and very healthy
Fits lovely and looks beautiful in my fish tank, I'm definitely going to order another full one for my pleco to hide inside
Lovely item which adds colour, health and dimension to my fish tank. Fast delivery too. Highly recommended!
Arch looks good and java fern appears to be stable. Hopefully it won't get damaged
Within 2 days all the moss had come off and was just floating around my aquarium and blocked my filter. Really disappointed and a complete waste of money
Arrived I perfect condition my male crowntail betta loves it now his favourite place to sleep
This came well packed and in excellent condition, I’m very pleased with their service and this is why I will use aquaessentials again.
One negative comment is that my brute of a plec keeps knocking it over in his rush to hide in it ????
Great quality, good size and looks good in the tank, my Betta loves swimming through it and hanging out under it
The fish love having a hide and the snails love the moss!

I thought it was worth the money it’s a bit smaller than I thought but overall it’s gd and adds a lot to my tank.
This is great, love it, as do the fish
Brilliant, the shrimp absolutely love these things and spend hours grazing on it.
The moss on top is fairly thick but was a bit brownish on arrival - to be expected so don't be put off - it's already nice and green again and starting to grow more after only a couple of weeks. Very good product. Not got the shrimp yet but I'm sure they'll love this when I get them.

Yes — small fish and shrimp use the arch as a shelter, territory, and swimming route. It is particularly popular as a hiding spot for shy fish and breeding shrimp.
No — Java moss grows under standard aquarium lighting without CO2 injection.
Natural coconut may release some tannins initially, giving the water a light amber tint. This is harmless and settles with water changes.
Yes — the moss will slowly increase its coverage over the coconut surface. Trim with scissors to keep the shape defined.
Yes — one of the best features for a shrimp tank. The combination of moss and natural coconut shelter is highly attractive to shrimp.
