Bioscape Oriental Sailing Schooner 23.6 x 18cm
A weathered oriental schooner wreck that gives fish somewhere new to explore. The Bioscape Oriental Sailing Schooner is a cast, hand-painted ornament styled as a sunken Asian-inspired sailing ship, sized at 23.6 × 18 cm to suit small to mid-sized freshwater and marine aquariums.
Key features
- Hand-painted finish – each piece is cast and hand-painted, so colour and weathering detail vary slightly from piece to piece.
- Shipwreck silhouette – the broken hull and rigging shape creates openings at different heights, giving fish places to duck into rather than one single cavity.
- Freshwater and marine safe – non-toxic and rated for use in both setups, so it isn't limited to one type of tank.

Will it fit my tank?
At 23.6 cm long and 18 cm high, it suits small to mid-sized aquariums comfortably – check the footprint against your tank's floor space before ordering if you're running a nano tank, since a piece this size can dominate a small aquascape.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable for freshwater and marine aquarium display, as a centrepiece or a hiding feature for shy fish. Not designed or finished for use outside water – it's an aquatic ornament, not a terrarium or paludarium piece.
Care and maintenance
Rinse thoroughly under running water before adding it to the tank to clear manufacturing dust or loose particles from the casting and paint process. No soaking or curing period is required before it goes in.
Warranty and delivery
Covered against manufacturing defects under Bioscape's warranty, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Ships by standard parcel post.
Common questions
Will the paint affect my water chemistry?
No – Bioscape rates this ornament as non-toxic and safe for both freshwater and marine aquariums.
Does it float or sink?
It sinks and sits on the substrate; no gluing or weighting is needed for normal use.
Will fish actually use the hiding spaces?
The broken-hull shape gives multiple entry points at different heights, which shy or territorial fish generally use more readily than a single smooth cavity.
Is it reef safe?
It's rated safe for marine use, but as with any new ornament in an established reef system, rinse it well and introduce it gradually.
