FAQ

Is it safe for my fish? Yes. It is molded from non-toxic, aquarium-safe poly resin and will not leach or change your water parameters.

Do I need to prepare it first? Just rinse it in clean, dechlorinated water before placing it in the tank. No soap.

Will it float? It is made to sit on the substrate. If it shifts during setup, tuck the base into your gravel or sand to anchor it.

Good for plecos and catfish? Yes. The hollow root makes an ideal daytime hideaway for bottom-dwellers and other cave-loving fish.
