Reef Crest Malaysian Mangrove Sinking Driftwood - 16–20 Inch

Overview

Larger statement pieces of dense sinking driftwood suited to medium and big tanks. Create dramatic roots and archways, break line of sight for shy fish, and establish a stable hardscape that matures beautifully with plants and patina.

Features

• Hefty hardwood that anchors layouts without added weights
• Branching forms for instant caves, perches, and visual height
• Ideal mounting surfaces for epiphyte plants and moss walls
• Natural tannins promote a healthy, bioactive environment

Preparation and Use

Rinse well. Pre-soak several days or boil to speed sinking and reduce tannins. Expect temporary biofilm; it is normal and easily managed by cleanup crew. Use gel super glue or thread to attach plants; avoid wedging tightly against glass.

Water Chemistry and Compatibility

May slightly lower pH and soften water; amber tint is common early on. Excellent for blackwater and community setups. Use chemical filtration if you prefer less tint.
