Mangrove Pod

Mangrove Pod

(Rhizophora sp.)

Mangrove Pods are propagules harvested from red mangrove trees, ready to root and grow directly in your aquarium, refugium, or sump. Mangroves are exceptional natural nitrate and phosphate exporters, making them a functional and visually striking addition to reef and brackish systems. With their distinctive aerial root structure, they add a unique naturalistic look while actively improving water quality over time.
