Description of the nature of the root
Ett robust och kompakt stycke Tuskwood-rot med en naturligt grov yta och en mörkbrun färgton. Formen är huvudsakligen rak och massiv, med några mindre utskjutande delar som ger karaktär.
Aquarium style suggestions and planting ideas
Passar utmärkt som en stabil bas eller mittpunkt i akvariet. Den grova ytan är idealisk för att fästa epifytiska växter som Anubias, Bucephalandra och Javaormbunke. Mossor kan också enkelt bindas fast för att skapa en mjukare, mer naturlig look. För att komplettera den raka formen kan högre växter som Vallisneria planteras runt basen.
Dimensions of the root
- Length: 50 cm
- Height: 40cm
- Depth: 10 cm
Proposed aquarium format and size
Med sina mått på 50 cm längd, 40 cm höjd och 10 cm djup/bredd är denna rot lämplig för medelstora till större akvarier där en solid och vertikal struktur önskas.

Advantages of Tuskwood
- Genuine mineralised bogwood / moss wood
- Long life span
- Normally no biofilm or mucus formation
- Works in both hard and soft water
- Reliable sinking ability, normally sinking within 2-4 weeks
- Naturally beautiful colour tones in dark brown with a slightly reddish tinge under water
Unlike regular spiderwood, manzanita, mangrove or Malaysian driftwood, Tuskwood comes from Europe and has formed naturally in Nordic peatlands. The mineralisation and impregnation of humus makes the wood durable and beautiful.
Tuskwood slowly releases natural humic substances that support fish health. However, the impact on the colour of the water is minimal and usually not noticeable.
- Stable and mild release of humus
- Positive for the well-being of fish
- Spleen antimicrobial
A more sustainable choice
Much of the wood sold for aquascaping comes from tropical forests in Asia and is shipped halfway around the world.
Tuskwood is a Nordic natural material, collected locally as a by-product of other natural uses. This makes it a more sustainable choice, without tropical unregulated logging, mangrove destruction or undignified labour conditions. Tuskwood stands for minimal transportation and the promotion of local economy and jobs.
