Dark Slim Wood

These beautiful, very delicate roots for the aquarium and aquascape are slightly thicker from the middle and then finely branched and therefore appear very light and distinctive in a layout.

These contrasting roots are really beautiful in combination with mosses and small epiphytes (such as Anubias Pangolino or small Bucephalandra) and are therefore also perfect for shrimp aquariums. Depending on the design, they also look very good when they stand alone and are framed by some striking stones.

These aquarium roots contain less humic and tannins than other aquarium roots and therefore do not color the water as much. However, it is slightly acidified, which noticeably increases the willingness to spawn and the general well-being of fish. The numerous branches are also often used as a resting or spawning place.

Shrimp often and happily graze the roots after the slightest growth of algae and romp around on them in large numbers.

The roots are dry and not pre-watered, so they have to be weighed down in the aquarium or aquascape until they stay down or can of course be watered in advance outside the aquarium.

Please do not boil the Dark Slim Wood! This would destroy the biochemical balance in the wood. The pieces are carefully hand selected, washed and dried.

Since this is a natural product, deviations are possible, each piece looks different.
