Use this wood risk-free in any type of vivarium that doesn’t require water hardness to be high. Here is a recommended list of vivariums Mopani Wood is commonly used in:
Paludariums – Half aquatic/ half terrain-based enclosure.
Ripariums – Mostly aquatic-based enclosure with some terrain features present.
Terrariums – Fully terrain-based enclosure with little to no aquatic features.
Aquariums – Fully aquatic-based enclosure with no terrain features.
The greatest benefit of using Mopani Driftwood compared to other vivarium driftwood is the effects it has on lowering water conditions. This is a great wood to use in softwater biotypes as well as enclosures that have steady periods of drying out. The unique appearance of this wood is exceptional and will provide a place for inhabitants to hide, breed, and eat. This type of driftwood is non-toxic, making it safe for fish, reptiles, and invertebrates.
Density is also a strong factor to consider for those looking for driftwood that sinks easily. This is one of the heaviest woods used by vivarium enthusiasts and there’s never really a complaint as far as sink-ability when it comes to using this driftwood.
