Redmoor Root Driftwood - the most beautiful natural wood decor for Aquariums
Description : 26 Mar, 2023
Not to be confused with different cheaper wood types, advertised to look similar. Loved by aquatic landscape designers and amateur fish keepers alike, this particular item is an absolutely spectacular piece (please see photos) both in design & uniqueness, being made by nature, no one else will have an identical one as this.
A large piece, which is hard to find nowadays (see photos). Around 55cm x 50cm with a maximum thickness depth of 24cm, and weighing 7Kg.
As can be seen in the photo, it was sold by Aquatic shop for £24.99 per Kg, and so £175 for a unique extra large piece of this size in some shops. I am not a shop and I think £175 is too much for wood no matter how beautiful, and of course this is not brand new (although wood does not get old as such). Advertising it for a limited time at a one off price of ONLY £65!!
For those who would like to know more about keeping this type of wood and its benefits, besides its obvious beautiful visuals, here are some of its other advantages:
Although the level of tannin it produces is moderate, it will eventually lower the pH level of the water it inhabits. This is beneficial for underwater animals that live in slightly acidic water, such as freshwater fish. This change also happens slowly so that the fish can adjust. The moderate amount of tannin production also implies that the water will likely not turn brown in the future.
Provides Food for Small Water Creatures
The Redmoor structure will to a limited extent break down into small pieces over a very long period of time. This process happens for a very long time and is a natural occurrence.
It is beneficial because invertebrates will eat the small broken down parts of the tree.
The invertebrates in turn are a source of food for the fish which are bigger.
A Great Growing Place for Plants
Due to its structure, underwater plants will thrive when attached to the driftwood.
Its broken down parts can provide nutrients for these plants.
Low Toxin Rate
Redmoor root driftwood, luckily, does not contain inherent toxins, unlike some other driftwoods which require the right treatment before being used in aquariums.
