The mineralisation and impregnation of humus makes the wood durable and beautiful.<\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n Much of the wood sold for aquascaping comes from tropical forests in Asia and is shipped halfway around the world.<\/p>\n Tuskwood is a Nordic natural material, collected locally as a by-product of other natural uses.
