Marina Aquarium Mopani Driftwood Ornamental Root Décor, Medium,Brown

To be clear, I prefer to know what a thing looks like (and gaze upon a selection) before I open my billfold. So the negative reviews soytenly gave me pause. Alas! Gorgeous piece nearly 20" long with a full length, crescent relief (hollowed out) that shows off the inside dark grain. It's very stable on a flat surface and contoured so the hollowed out part faces up. Fantastic!Concerned about driftwood turning your pristine aquarium water brown? Be assured IT WILL... Hucking a new piece of mopani in your tank will be akin to tossing an orange pekoe tea bag in there. And yes, some hobbyists want that for their black-water tropicals!Hobbyists have been boiling/soaking/seasoning driftwood for centuries; it isn't brain surgery and it soytenly hain't a secret! If you're gnu to this stuff, I've provided the product labeling which coaches you on the technique. Read it. Believe it. Memorize it. Buy the bumper sticker and rent the TShirt. It's not that big of a deal. This will be my 9th new waterlog in 16yrs and there's still nothing new under the sun.As for the white goo? Whoopty-do! Despite the parrots and fear mongers in the crowd, everyone in the hobby knows the residue haint a monster. It's not toxic, nor is it forever, nor does it occur everytime. If anybody lost fish after adding driftwood, it's because of prolonged pith-poor water conditions brought on by overfeeding or biofilter neglect.O Reader, get the driftwood and work with it. Column feeders like anubias or windelov will grow on it. Bottom feeders will use it for refuge and some will graze it along side inverts. Swimmers may not give a rip if it's there or not, but its natural presence in the biome will make you wonder why you bought all those plastic/ceramic things that teach kids to throw garbage in the lake.Thanks Fluval! Thanks Amazon. You're still champs in my highy sought-after opinion ;-)

Duży korzeń. Ciekawy kształt. Długo barwii się na brązowo więc warto go najpierw wymoczyć poza akwarium.

Needed some more wood as a centerpiece with some other bits, ironically, its shaped almost identicle to a piece i already have! Which i think i ordered from here some yearsback... amusing, and will add a nice symmetrical taste to the tank when i lay it out.Was delivered about 4pm, poured around 7 kennels worth of boiling water over it between 4-8, gave it a good scrub. Came off bright red first two times and then ran clear. Rinsed it with cold water and by 9 it was in the tank, sunk to the bottom with only the tiniest amount of buoyancy on the side with less weight, which settled after a day. Lovely piece, will be ordering a large piece next!

Madera de mopani auténtica. Tronco de proporciones excelentes en el cual se pueden plantar plantas naturales. Gran acierto para todo acuarista que quiera introducir elementos naturales en su acuario
