Hello, I just bought some dead barnacles and was thinking of placing them in my tank for a natural look, my question is are there any down sides to doing this? thanks.
 
Where did you purchase the dead barnacles if you don't mind me asking? And are they just for decoration? Only asking because I havent heard of this before.
 
Is it a real barnacle? Where do barnacles that big even come from. Can i see a picture of it in your tank? This sounds really cool

Yes they are real Barnacles but it is a cluster that is 7 inches, I will post pictures as soon as they come in.
 
They often come from scraping/cleaning ship hulls and whale hunts among other places. Someone figured out they were usefull for some things. Decorations etc.
I am kidding about the whales before the emails start...
 
Barnacles will grow taller and larger if they are clustered real close and over populated.

No issues with having them in your tank.
