I would like to know if anyone uses this in their enclosures.
Been researching for a suitable substitute for cork bark and this looks promising. Its used in terrariums, vivs and as centerpieces holding live plants. On one supplier's site a bulk order of these is 1/3 the cost of cork bark of the same volume. Diameter ranges from 1"-4", with 2" the average, and lengths to 18".
I like the unusual look of the wood, similar to coral with many holes in it. Its resistant to moisture and if weighed down can be placed in aquariums, which is a big plus over other woods.
If you use cholla cactus wood, I'd like to hear your comments.
Happy T'ing to all. [emoji3]

I have a few big, hollow pieces that I plan to use for a T tank, and I have lots of little pieces I use in my fish and invert tanks.
Great stuff.
