majoywoo Natural Large Coral Driftwood for Aquarium Decor Reptile Decor, Assorted Driftwood Branch 9-14" 2 Pcs, Fish Tank Decoration…

So I’ve ordered from this company at least three or four times over the years. Only once was I disappointed after unpackaging moldy wood. After I got over the disappointment of that order (which I did return), it hasn’t stopped me from continuing to order from this seller because of my past positive experiences. I’ve ordered both spider wood as mopani. This particular time I ordered 2 pieces of spiderwood, and I was not let down. The pieces are super unique, all at least 12” in length and loving the shapes. I’ve learned 1) You (almost always) get what you pay for in terms of the size you order. It is natural wood so every piece will be unique 2) It’s like a box of chocolates: you never know what you’re going to get. If you’re not happy with what you received (ex: 3 smaller pieces of spiderwood but you expected to get pieces that were bigger, then you probably should pay a little more 🤷🏻‍♀️). Or if you don’t like the shape, well….its natural wood . Also keep in mind some super glue, a piece of cotton (and some of whatever substrate you have to sprinkle over the glue to cover the white color the super glue dries)…..then you have more flexibility make what you want you can take those smaller pieces and create your own, unique piece. As I’ve learned since I started this hobby, you don’t have to be disappointed with what you receive (unless you paid for 2 larges pieces and didn’t receive two large pieces), you can do so many things with multiple small pieces. They don’t have to be just some wood that lays flat in your aquarium. Save some money (if you don’t end up returning it bc you got pieces arrived moldy)….and find a way to scape your tank with what you have. I boil all of the wood (and all things related to hardscape) every time. I’m still expecting there to be some tannins in my tank, but fish like it, it’s good for their slime coat and it’ll eventually be clear with proper maintenance as well as time. Im still anticipating it’s not going to sink straight to the bottom so I plan on anchoring them anyway for stability. And if you begin to see some fuzzy, unsightly white organic biomaterial growing on your wood, it’s more likely than not both the wood and your tank are trying to find an equilibrium and the white stuff with eventually go away if you don’t choose to try and get rid of it first. And for those who are complaining about their wood not sinking right away after boiling/sinking, then use a rock of something to anchor it down until it’s waterlogged. Problem solved. I’ve boiled and boiled sometimes and the wood still wouldn’t sink. So basically if you’re not happy with it or you feel like you got ripped off, then contact the seller. Otherwise look at it as a chance to do something cool by creating your own piece. My two 12” pieces of spiderwood did have some natural tiny thorn-like pieces (since remember: it’s natural wood), but I sanded those to try and help mitigate any injury to my fish. I saw some negative reviews from other people, looked at their pictures and thought : I would love to have received that piece. But the two pieces I received are going to be perfect for my river bed theme in a tank set up I’m working on now. Definitely recommend this seller as definitely will be ordering again in the future.

I am in love with this drift wood! It is very affordable and sturdy! I was worried it would be thin and weak but the wood is thick! Additionally it is very nice quality and not at all some cheap junky/dirty wood! Now the size I purchased was so easy to add to my tank, Be aware of the size of your take otherwise it may not fit! Another thing to add lots of people complain that makes their tank brown!!! 😱 No worries though wood has tannins and it says to boil your wood to remove that tea color! You will have to do it a few times and it will change the color of the wood a bit. But it becomes richer and a more beautiful in my opinion! It was packaged so well not a single piece of wood could move lol! Everyone needs drift wood in their tank but this you won’t be disappointed!!!!!

Beautiful pieces! At first I was a bit irked because one of the 3 pieces was just one big blob of wood, but when I laid it on its side it made the most perfect scape for my dwarf baby tears plant. I tucked it in a tight gap created by the curving wood.I boiled each piece twice, and just tossed some stone pieces on them to hold them down. I didn't want ALL the trains leeched out because the fish love then. My seiryu stone was meant to be a bridge, but was broken in transport, so I played with everything until I was able to make it work. Another piece of my wood was shaped like an oriental dragon... it is so cool!Packaging was very good. Wrapped tightly in bubble wrap, and placed inside a box. Let me tell you! It took some effort to get my pieces out of it lol. Overall happy, and will be ordering again when I'm ready to scape my 75 gallon tank

so many good size pieces came in this order which i wasn’t expecting! did create a bit of bio film in my fish tank but it hasn’t caused any damage and the water levels are good. and i really like the overall vibe it gives my tanks. i did boil them as directed and they sunk relatively well. did still cause a bit of coloring in my tank. i think they look great in my geckos tank as well
