Do you offer the Extra Large size for Zoo Med Log?

Answer by ChewyFeb 02, 2018
At this time, this log only comes in one size.

what is the smallest size of tank will this piece fit in?

Answer by ChewyJul 14, 2018
This product measures 4.25 x 2 x 1.75 inches. As long as your tank dimensions are larger than this, it will work. Dimensions are listed as length by width by height.

would this also work for a small ball python?

This product is not suitable for reptiles such as ball pythons. This log is made for aquatic fish such as bettas.

Careful! mine has some sharp edges inside.

I knew this wasn't a very "natural" looking log, but thought it could serve as a hiding spot for some of my bottom dwellers. Unfortunately, I found some sharp edges

I knew this wasn't a very "natural" looking log, but thought it could serve as a hiding spot for some of my bottom dwellers. Unfortunately, I found some sharp edges inside the log where the small holes had been made. I tried to sand them down a bit, but I don't think I'll it's suitable.

Ceramic, heavy enough to sink, cute

I got this for my algae eater since it's a baby. Perfect for my overly bright tank, and gives him a little place to chill. I appreciate that it's ceramic and sank

NOT safe

As many users are saying, the edges and especially the knot part that has a bunch of tiny holes, is so sharp it could cut a person, and would absolutely shred up

As many users are saying, the edges and especially the knot part that has a bunch of tiny holes, is so sharp it could cut a person, and would absolutely shred up a fish. Even sandpaper would be really tough to use since the little corners are hard to get into, you would need a Dremel for sure. This shouldn't be sold as anything other than a decoration, keep it away from pets.

hideaway decor

A nice color; smooth finish; but only approiate for smaller fish. My betta needs a little larger area to be comfortable going in and of this log. Thank you, Dolores

Great for loaches, plecos and small fishes

This ceramic log is extremely popular among my fin babies. I would definitely purchase a longer log if it were available.

Okay but concerned

I like the log but there are some sharp spots that I am concerned will injure my betta's fins. There are also two sharp bumps I am concerned about for the same
