WIO Wood Sinking Chips Accent 150 g
WIO Wood Sinking Chips Accent 150 g are natural wooden accents made from bark, roots, twigs and wood chips. Ideal for realistic details in aquascapes, biotope aquariums, paludariums and terrariums.
WIO Wood Sinking Chips Accent 150 g are natural wooden accents for creating detailed designs in aquariums, paludariums and terrariums. The mixture mimics accumulations of wood as found in riverbeds, along riverbanks and on jungle floors. This allows hardscape transitions, the bases of stones and natural drift lines to be designed particularly realistically.
The mixture consists of selected wooden components such as bark, fine roots, twigs and wood chips. After soaking or preparation, the pieces of wood sink and can be placed precisely between stones, on slopes or in small hollows. It is recommended to boil the material for approximately 20 minutes or soak it for 24–72 hours before use, and then introduce it into the tank gradually.
As this is a natural wood-based material, tannins may be released. In weakly buffered water, this can affect the pH value. Gradual addition and monitoring of water parameters are therefore particularly advisable where sensitive aquarium inhabitants are present.

Instructions for use
Rinse thoroughly before use. For use in the aquarium, it is recommended to boil the Wood Sinking Chips for approx. 20 minutes or soak them for 24–72 hours so that they sink more effectively and any initial release of substances is reduced. Then add them in small quantities in specific locations, for example behind rocks, at the foot of slopes or along natural drift lines.
Zoo Roco Tip
Wood Sinking Chips look particularly natural when they are not spread out over a large area, but placed strategically in small clusters – for example, behind rocks, in crevices or at the junctions between sand, soil and hardscape. This creates a naturally developed layout without the aquarium looking overloaded.
