Buy a small quantity if you only need one or two accent branches, and scale up for a full hardscape wall or centrepiece — because it's sold by the kilogram, you can always order more to match rather than being locked into a fixed box size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for freshwater aquascapes, shrimp tanks, paludariums and terrariums.

Tectona's low tannin content means less pre-soaking is typically needed than with darker driftwoods, though a short soak helps it waterlog and settle faster. Weigh down any piece that floats until it takes on water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold as a natural product, so variation in size, colour and shape between pieces is expected rather than a defect.
