Tree Bark Log Aquarium Ornament

Tree Bark Log Aquarium Ornament

Tree Bark Log Aquarium Ornament is a realistic hollow-log decoration from BOYU. It brings the natural look of the forest floor into your aquarium or terrarium and gives aquatic or terrestrial pets a cosy, cave-like place to shelter. It suits South African fishkeepers and reptile or amphibian keepers who want a natural-looking aquarium decoration that also works as a hide.

The ornament is sculpted to copy the look and feel of real tree bark. The exterior is a light brownish-tan, broken up by darker brown patches and streaks that mimic weathered wood. Its surface has intricate textures and varying depths, which recreate the rugged character of a fallen log rather than the flat, painted finish of cheaper resin decor.

The log is hollowed out, with one side left open to form a tunnel. Fish, shrimp, small reptiles and amphibians can slip inside to hide, rest or explore. The inside is smooth and dark, which contrasts with the rough, bark-like outside. That makes the piece practical as a shelter and striking as a focal point in your tank or vivarium.
