Driftwood is an essential component for decorating a naturalistic aquarium. Malaysian Driftwood is an excellent choice for aquascaping. In addition to providing dramatic, natural scenery in the aquarium, driftwood plays in an important role in the well-being of any aquarium. It provides shelter for aquarium animals and it can serve as an anchor for plants such as Java Fern, Anubias, and Java Moss or other mosses. Each Malaysian Driftwood piece is unique and will make an attractive addition to any freshwater aquarium! All of our aquarium driftwoods and rocks are treated for aquarium use after simple rinsing. Some driftwoods can initially release tannins in the water. Tannins are not necessarily harmful to aquarium plants and animals, but they will lower the pH of aquarium water. To reduce the release of tannins, simply boil the driftwood for a few minutes. If desired, driftwood can be boiled repeatedly until the boiling water does not tan at all in order to completely remove tannins before aquarium use. Otherwise, this driftwood will stop releasing tannins over time with regular aquarium water changes and maintenance. It may float initially when placed in the aquarium, but it will sink within a few days once it becomes soaked with water, or it will soak immediately when attached to a relatively heavy rock.
