Quick to prepare for aquarium
By CTL2020 on Jun 25, 2020
Cool pieces of wood. Relatively small so make sure you note the size. I like this Cholla wood because it only took about a week of soaking to release the tannins. My small plecos like it too. (I have been working on another piece of mopani wood for weeks that is still turning water dark red/brown with tannins. I am thankful I was able to get this piece of Cholla prepped and added to my aquarium quickly for my plecos.)

Maybe they'll work better for you
By kadotah on Jan 28, 2020
I've bought cholla before from other retailers and had no problems, but these from Chewy never sank. I had them in my tank for a week and they just kept floating. Even when weighted down they would pop up, so if you don't mind that they're good.

Must haves!!
By MotherNature on Sep 12, 2019
Now my baby fish have some place to hide that bigger fish cannot get at them. And, the release of tannins from this wood is a plus as a water conditioner.

Pretty much as expected
By SCSC on Aug 9, 2019
Received one piece that looks like the main image and one piece with a larger diameter. Took a couple of days of soaking before the pieces sunk.

My shrimp and snails love these
By Kodiaksmom on Aug 4, 2019
These are perfect for my ghost shrimp. Big enough for them to hide and explore. Plus my snails think they are fun.

Great Driftwood
By animallover on Feb 8, 2019
These are on the small side, however, they are great for putting live plants in! Both of mine sunk easily after soaking for a couple of days, and my fish fry love them.

My otos love them!
By Sarah on Dec 28, 2018
Mine were sinkable after soaking for two nights. They are narrower than I expected, but this wasn't problematic for me. My little oto cats love them, and they are smooth enough to be safe for the lady betta who lives with my otos. Would buy again.

Looks good in the tank
By reeart2 on Feb 1, 2019
The items were clean and in one piece, undamaged. The plecos were attracted to the driftwood dispit the small size. My plecos are 17” long.
