Zoo Med Betta Mopani Wood

• Creates “dark water” effect to simulate natural betta habitat
• Encourages natural behaviors such as bubble nesting
• Provides additional shelter to help reduce fish stress
• All-natural African hardwood

Note: As this is a natural product, size and shape will vary from piece to piece.

Directions: This wood will naturally leach tannins when placed in your betta tank, giving the water a light-to-dark brown tint while lowering the pH. This will stimulate the betta’s natural habitat, as wild bettas live in water tinted by decaying wood and leaves with a lower pH. Should the water become too dark or brown, remove the Mopani wood and soak it in a container of clean water, continually changing the water until the shade goes from dark brown to light brown or clear. Using a filter with your betta, you may add carbon to the filter to remove the brown tint.
