Will this help lower the pH? I want to do it naturally and not add chemicals.
Answer by ChewyApr 13, 2019
Cholla wood is a fantastic and natural way to lower and buffer pH.

Will this stay at the bottom or just float to the top? I want it to anchor plants down.
Answer by ChewyJul 30, 2020
This driftwood will remain at the bottom of your tank. For best results, pre-soak to allow saturation before adding to the aquarium or terrarium.

is this good for plecos? I need to replace driftwood in the tank now and was wondering. I like the look!
Answer by ChewySep 30, 2019
This driftwood may be used in a pleco aquarium.

Do you have to boil this or put it in water before you put it in your fish tank ?
Answer by ChewyMar 23, 2021
When adding this driftwood to your tank, you must rinse before use. For best results, pre-soak to allow saturation before adding to the aquarium or terrarium.

Waste of money

Out of the three I was sent only one came in one piece. Don’t waste your money on this.

I only wish I'd ordered a 2nd set!

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!

Super tiny

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.

misleading

Very small logs. Thought they would be longer. The pack that comes with two has more wood than these.

Good Wood.

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.

small to small

I have no idea what fish can fit in it because it’s so small

deceiving.

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.

Cholla wood review

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.

Fits the vibe

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.

Deceiving pictures

I have never seen Cholla wood so small around. They are 4 inches long but only maybe 1/2 “ diameter. No use to me.
