Directions for use

For optimal integration into your aquarium, it is recommended to rinse the root before use to remove any residual dust. Like most natural woods, it may require an immersion time of about a month before it sinks completely. During this period, it can be kept submerged using stones or ties.

A slight whitish deposit ( Saprolegnia ) may appear at first. It is harmless and usually disappears after a few weeks. You can remove it by vacuuming it or rubbing it gently. Finally, regularly monitor the pH of the water , as the addition of wood can influence its balance. A KH of at least 3 is recommended to maintain optimal stability.

A perfect choice for aquariums, paludariums and terrariums

Whether to create a refined aquatic landscape or a natural decor in a terrarium, the Striped Wood adapts to all configurations. Its original design and unique texture make it a centerpiece to enhance your aquatic living space.
