Bioscape Jungle Stump Large 42 x 28 x 50cm
A large aquascaping centrepiece with a built-in pocket for planting. At 42 x 28 x 50 cm, the Bioscape Jungle Stump Large is one of the biggest pieces in Bioscape's decor and ornaments range — sized for a big freshwater or marine display rather than a nano tank, with a recess moulded into the stump for anchoring plants, moss or a small hide.
Key features
- Built-in planting pocket — a moulded recess in the stump holds a potted plant, moss or an anchor point for epiphytes, rather than needing a separate mount.
- Large-scale centrepiece — at 50 cm tall, sized to anchor a big aquascape rather than sit alongside other decor.
- Aquarium-safe replica — part of Bioscape's decor and ornaments range, made as a manufactured replica rather than salvaged driftwood, so there's no soaking, tannin staining or sinking to manage before use.
- Multiple hideaways — the hollow trunk and root structure give fish somewhere to retreat, reducing stress in a busy display.

Will it fit my tank?
At 50 cm tall and 42 cm across the base, this is a large-format piece — check it against your tank's internal height and footprint before ordering, particularly in a tank under roughly 90 cm long, where it may crowd out swimming space.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable for freshwater and marine display tanks with the internal space to carry a large centrepiece, and for aquascapers wanting a built-in planting pocket without adding a separate plant weight or mount. Not suitable as the sole hardscape in a small or nano tank, where its footprint would dominate the display — the Jungle Stump Medium is the better fit there.
Care and maintenance
Rinse thoroughly in fresh water before placing it in the tank. Being a manufactured replica rather than real wood, it doesn't need soaking to sink, and it won't leach tannins into the water over time.
Warranty and delivery
Covered against manufacturing defects under Bioscape's warranty, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Given its size, check freight and delivery options at checkout, as large ornaments can attract oversize freight charges.
Common questions
Is this real driftwood?
No. It's a manufactured aquarium-safe replica from Bioscape's decor and ornaments range, not salvaged wood, so it won't stain the water with tannins the way genuine driftwood can.
Will it float?
Being a replica rather than real wood, it doesn't have the buoyancy issues driftwood has and doesn't need weighting or soaking to sink.
Is it reef safe?
Bioscape lists its decor and ornaments range as aquarium-safe for freshwater and marine setups. If you're running a reef tank with sensitive invertebrates, check with Bioscape directly on the exact material before adding any new ornament.
Can I plant directly into it?
Yes — the moulded pocket in the stump is designed to hold a potted plant or moss, so you can plant directly into the piece rather than propping plants against it.
