aquavitro Straight Shears are ideal for the regular maintenance of aquatic plants. They are particularly useful for trimming larger leaves and stems near the water's surface where a shallow angle remains effective. In marine and reef aquariums, aquavitro Straight Shears work very well in trimming soft coral with ease to maintain shape and spacing, or to produce frags. aquavitro aquarium tools are made from premium stainless steel, enabling them to withstand a long life in an aquatic environment. They are suitable for use in freshwater and marine aquariums.
