Don't buy--hurts fish!!!
By AmyB on Dec 1, 2020
After adding this product to my aquarium the water quality declined rapidly. I thought maybe it was something else since this was made for aquariums and left it in. One of my fish lost it's eyesight and the other lost some scales because of the diminished water quality. As soon as I removed the product from the aquarium the water began stabilizing. I wish I had realized that was the problem sooner.

Looks great
By Ricky on Nov 21, 2020
Have had this for a couple years, and it works perfectly as advertised. No odor. Easy to clean. Good for breaking up water flow from the filter.

Bad odor after in the tank a few weeks
By kakky on May 30, 2020
Attractive piece at first. When I cleaned it after being in the tank a few weeks I noticed an awful smell when I removed it. The “paint” used to give it it’s natural appearance rubs off. The odor gets worse with time. Straight into the garage it went. Too bad as this is a pricey item.

Fake looking wood, not a great buy. You can do better
By aquariumwood on Jun 1, 2020
This arrived broken into 5 pieces. It was inappropriatly packed and arrived a mess.Very cheap plastic wood like substance. I tried to use is anyway but it made a mess in my tank and ended up leaching chemicals into my tank. Not a great buy.

By Disappointed on Feb 18, 2020
This came with some sand and gravel I ordered for a new tank. It was broken in multiple places. I had to glue it back together and it looks terrible

5 stars for Chewy, 2 for manufacture packaging
By Rayb on Oct 11, 2019
Looks great bigger the what I thought, only problem is the Styrofoam packaging, it is all over the Mangrove Root, and with the static cling it is going to be a process to be sure all the Styrofoam is removed before putting in the aquarium, rinsing helps but still lots of little pieces left to find and remove.

Bad smell lingering around aquarium
By Datnoid on Oct 21, 2019
I bought two of the mangrove root decos 4 months ago, have been smelling a bad sulfur order around my 135g aquarium/living room, when I do weekly water changes the smell gets stronger we thought it was the water. After reading reviews I decided to take the 2 mangrove roots out..man did they stink. I think the combination of prime and those mangrove roots created the smell cause it’s not as bad.. I will continue with my weekly water changes.
