majoywoo Natural Large Coral Driftwood for Aquarium Decor Reptile Decor, Assorted Driftwood Branch 9-14" 2 Pcs, Fish Tank Decoration…

So I’ve ordered from this company at least three or four times over the years. Only once was I disappointed after unpackaging moldy wood. After I got over the disappointment of that order (which I did return), it hasn’t stopped me from continuing to order from this seller because of my past positive experiences. I’ve ordered both spider wood as mopani. This particular time I ordered 2 pieces of spiderwood, and I was not let down. The pieces are super unique, all at least 12” in length and loving the shapes. I’ve learned 1) You (almost always) get what you pay for in terms of the size you order. It is natural wood so every piece will be unique 2) It’s like a box of chocolates: you never know what you’re going to get. If you’re not happy with what you received (ex: 3 smaller pieces of spiderwood but you expected to get pieces that were bigger, then you probably should pay a little more 🤷🏻‍♀️). Or if you don’t like the shape, well….its natural wood . Also keep in mind some super glue, a piece of cotton (and some of whatever substrate you have to sprinkle over the glue to cover the white color the super glue dries)…..then you have more flexibility make what you want you can take those smaller pieces and create your own, unique piece. As I’ve learned since I started this hobby, you don’t have to be disappointed with what you receive (unless you paid for 2 larges pieces and didn’t receive two large pieces), you can do so many things with multiple small pieces. They don’t have to be just some wood that lays flat in your aquarium. Save some money (if you don’t end up returning it bc you got pieces arrived moldy)….and find a way to scape your tank with what you have. I boil all of the wood (and all things related to hardscape) every time. I’m still expecting there to be some tannins in my tank, but fish like it, it’s good for their slime coat and it’ll eventually be clear with proper maintenance as well as time. Im still anticipating it’s not going to sink straight to the bottom so I plan on anchoring them anyway for stability. And if you begin to see some fuzzy, unsightly white organic biomaterial growing on your wood, it’s more likely than not both the wood and your tank are trying to find an equilibrium and the white stuff with eventually go away if you don’t choose to try and get rid of it first. And for those who are complaining about their wood not sinking right away after boiling/sinking, then use a rock of something to anchor it down until it’s waterlogged. Problem solved. I’ve boiled and boiled sometimes and the wood still wouldn’t sink. So basically if you’re not happy with it or you feel like you got ripped off, then contact the seller. Otherwise look at it as a chance to do something cool by creating your own piece. My two 12” pieces of spiderwood did have some natural tiny thorn-like pieces (since remember: it’s natural wood), but I sanded those to try and help mitigate any injury to my fish. I saw some negative reviews from other people, looked at their pictures and thought : I would love to have received that piece. But the two pieces I received are going to be perfect for my river bed theme in a tank set up I’m working on now. Definitely recommend this seller as definitely will be ordering again in the future.

Beautiful quality driftwood. Very interesting shapes and sizes. All very different and natural. I have four in total, using two that stand alone and two incorporated into planters. I usually try to find my own driftwood at various beaches but ended up trying these and I'm pleased. Worth the money.

Nothing like picture, I received a very flat plain piece of wood all the branches were trimmed off. Im not going to return/replace it because I expect I'll just be disappointed if i do. It will work but my drift wood I bought looks nothing like the stuff others bought. Not worth the price tag in my opinion as I could probably find something like similar to this at a local lake.When I first posted this I gave it 2 stars, since then the seller has offered to replace it with a better one. Im giving it 3 stars for now until I receive the new one. Honestly im very surprised how much they cared about 1 bad review as multiple people have posted great reviews. I would like to add that the wood itself is very good quality and has beautiful burl.Final update, received the replacement it was definitely a big improvement compared to what I got. still relatively flat but it did have branches this time, definitely happy that it was still flat but with branches as well this time. Would make a great base piece for an aquarium or for a terrarium like I am using it for.

Best. Purchase. Ever. I love these. I recently set-up two ornamental shrimp tanks, both under ten gallons. These pieces are gorgeous in my tanks! I made sure to boil them for a few hours and I'm so glad I did - the water was dark brown and gross. I boiled for a bit, poured out the icky water and refilled, boiled again, etc. Did that about three times before I decided enough was enough and it would have to be "good enough". It had the desired effect because the pieces have been in my tanks for almost two weeks now and the water remains crystal clear and the shrimp are all thriving. I actually have a freshwater pea puffer in one of the tanks and he seems happy too. He likes to hide amongst the wood pieces and he blends so well I have a hard time finding him. Very happy with these pieces.
