Black Forest Spider Wood (Small)

Black Forest Spider Wood is a premium hardscape choice, known for its deep charcoal brown hue that darkens over time, creating a mysterious and dramatic aquascape. Unlike standard Spider Wood, which only browns when waterlogged, this unique driftwood enhances contrast against vibrant aquatic plants for a striking visual effect.

• Signature Dark Hue – Starts with a rich, deep brown/black color and darkens further over time.
• Minimal Tannin Release – Releases fewer tannins, making it easy to keep water clear
• Intricate, Root-Like Structure – Features twisting branches, knots, and natural formations, ideal for creating depth in aquascapes.
• Striking Aquascaping Contrast – Pairs beautifully with boldly colored plants for a visually dynamic aquarium.
• Versatile Hardscape Choice – Works as a standalone centerpiece or alongside rocks and plants for a natural, immersive look.

Perfect for nature-style aquariums, Black Forest Spider Wood adds character and complexity to any planted tank.

Usage Tips

• Sinking the Wood: Initially use a weight or rock to sink the wood; it will naturally submerge after becoming fully saturated.
• Normal Fungus Development: A temporary white fungus may appear but is harmless and may be consumed by fish or shrimp. It can also be removed with gentle scrubbing.
