Aquadunia

Aquarium driftwood is one of the basic elements used in almost all aquascaping styles. Learn how to source and prepare aquarium driftwood.

Driftwood is the remains of trees and bushes that were washed into the ocean, lake or river. The wood eventually loses its bark due to decay and the physical action of waves, wind and tides.

But not all driftwood comes from the water.

Some wood simply weathers over the years, sitting on the shore. Some types of wood sold for aquariums come from the desert and have never been submerged or soaked with water.

Today aquarium driftwood means a variety of natural wood types suitable for use in fish tanks.
