Kinds of Aquarium Driftwoods include the following:

Standard aquarium driftwood

• Standard aquarium driftwood is commonly found in North America.
• It is the remaining branch or trunk of trees that have been damaged by wind and water erosion.
• Because it floats on water, it needs to be weighed down by slate or submerged in the aquarium for some time to settle at the bottom.
• It is affordable.

• Savanna root aquarium driftwood has a smooth and a rough side.
• It is almost as common as a standard aquarium driftwood.
• It sinks easily.

• African aquarium driftwood has a dark shade and a ribbed or hollow body.
• It is older than a standard aquarium driftwood.
• It is also more expensive.

• Malaysian aquarium driftwood is elongated.
• It sinks on its own.
• It is ideal for anchoring plant life.

Treated driftwood: Choose a treated aquarium driftwood that sinks on its own so you do not have to weigh it down or submerge it for a long time before use.
