Put the fun in function with the SubstrateSource Cholla Wood Aquarium & Terrarium Driftwood. Made from an all-natural, dried husk of the Cholla cactus, its porous structure and soft texture make it both a unique aquarium decoration and a functional feature. You can use it as a base to attach Anubias, Java Fern and aquatic mosses, or as a site for small fish and shrimp to find food and shelter. It’s also great as natural décor and a climbing surface in your hermit crab habitat. Whatever you choose, it comes with three hand-selected pieces that measure approximately 4 inches long and .5 to 1.5 inches in diameter.

May discolor water due to natural release of tannins or organic acids.
Rinse before use. For best results, pre-soak to allow saturation before adding to the aquarium or terrarium.
Out of the three I was sent only one came in one piece. Don’t waste your money on this.
These 3 pieces of Cholla wood are exactly as described and look exactly like the picture, which is nice because there's no surprise in what you're getting! My only problem is that I wish i had ordered a second set! They look so cute scattered in our tank, and our pleco "Boomer" just loves these!
I thought it was for an aquarium but it wasn’t. The wood started to mold and come apart, it left a nasty chunk of moldy slime floating in the tank. It may be fine for a dry tank but definitely not for a water one! It’s also half the size I expected it to be and I expected it to be really small.
Very small logs. Thought they would be longer. The pack that comes with two has more wood than these.
In my head, this was much larger than I actually got. But it worked out great since our axolotl is super small and the cost is great for the product. Eventually it will sink to the bottom after a couple of days of floating as well.
I have no idea what fish can fit in it because it’s so small
This wood looks large in the picture , but is extremely small. Mine were not even 4 inches and onlh as wide as my pinky. It was disappointing.
Let them sit in water to relive as many tannins and to allow them to become saturated and sink for about a week. Even when saturated they’ll move around the tank. Ended up using some left over lead weights from my plants to hold them down. The Mexican dwarf crayfish like to climb through them. Haven’t added any shrimp as of yet. Not bad overall though.
I love how they look. I have a 3 gallon tank and it fits perfectly. My only complaint is that 1 of the 3 pieces will not submerge.
I have never seen Cholla wood so small around. They are 4 inches long but only maybe 1/2 “ diameter. No use to me.
