"Buying driftwood online is always a gamble, you never know what it will look like. I got the medium, this particular one is quite good looking and I'm really happy with it! It's going in my leopard gecko's enclosure. This type of wood is much better for dry enclosures, it can be more likely to mold ..."

"I would give it 0 stars. Attempted to use for my crested geckos but the branches began molding after less than a week in the bioactive environments. It may be fine for desert critters."

Bottom Line

If you're setting up an arid enclosure and aren't too concerned about the size, this branch might work for you. However, for tropical or bioactive setups, consider other options.
