Detailing Wood – 100gms
To our customers: Wood, sand, soil, pebbles, stones, chips, and gravel are natural products. Their color, texture, and size may vary slightly from the images shown. These natural variations are normal and do not affect the quality or usability of the product.
Detailing Wood refers to natural driftwood or specially treated hardwood pieces used as decorative and functional elements in aquascaping. They enhance both the aesthetic appeal and biological balance of aquariums.
Benefits of Using Wood in Aquariums
- Natural Look: Creates a realistic underwater habitat similar to riverbeds and forests.
- Shelter & Territory: Fish, shrimp, and snails use wood for hiding and resting.
- Biofilm & Algae Growth: Beneficial for grazing fish like Plecos and shrimps.
- Water Conditioning: Many types release tannins, which slightly lower pH and soften the water — perfect for tropical species.
- Plant Support: Wood provides surfaces for attaching mosses, ferns, and Anubias.
