Originating from naturally dried vine roots, this wood allows aquascapers to create dynamic, highly detailed layouts with dramatic heights, sweeping arches, and dense focal points that are difficult to achieve with chunkier hardwoods. When dry, Goldvine features a light golden hue, which deepens into a rich, warm mahogany tone once fully submerged in the aquarium. Highly versatile and completely inert, Goldvine releases virtually no tannins, ensuring your water remains crystal-clear without yellow discoloration or drastic pH shifts, making it an exceptional choice for nature aquariums, moss trees, and planted community displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreparation \u0026amp; Placement Guide:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoaking \u0026amp; Submersion:\u003c\/b\u003e Due to its lightweight, dry nature, Goldvine is highly buoyant and typically takes \u003cb\u003e7 to 14 days\u003c\/b\u003e to become fully waterlogged.
