Malaysian Driftwood / 1 Kg

It’s not rocket science, it’s woodwork in your tank!

Malaysian Driftwood is commonly known as Malaysian Blackwood or Ebony. It is indigenous to the forest of Malaysia.

It’s really dark in color, thick, heavy, and every piece is different from the other.

The wood’s appearance, density, and slow pace of decomposition have made it a must-have among hobbyists.

Malaysian Driftwood can have a significant impact on the surroundings in which it is placed.  The tannins from the dark driftwood will leak into the aquarium water in modest proportions. This will give the water a tea-colored tint while also substantially decreasing the PH and hardness levels. This is appropriate for tanks with a PH level of less than 7.

Malaysian Driftwood when placed in aquariums creates a visual treat, the wonderful line of natural Wood roots compliments the aquarium décor.

Malaysian Driftwood wood is are safe for freshwater aquariums.
