Product Information
Full details
The Aqua One Tree Man Standing ornament is designed for hobbyists looking to add a touch of whimsy and personality to their aquatic environments. This decorative piece provides a unique focal point for both coldwater and tropical fish tanks, helping to create a structured and engaging underwater landscape. While it offers excellent aesthetic appeal, users should note that as a static resin piece, it does not provide biological filtration or live hiding spots, meaning it should be complemented with live or silk plants for a balanced ecosystem.

Can I use this in a saltwater tank?

Troubleshooting
Ornament keeps tipping over
Ensure the base is buried deeper into the gravel or sand substrate to improve stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Tree Man is straightforward: rinse the ornament thoroughly before its first use to remove any dust from packaging. Gently push the base into your substrate to ensure it is level and stable. It is compatible with all standard aquarium filters and heaters, provided it is not placed directly against an intake pipe which might restrict water flow. For care, keep an eye on surface buildup; if algae appears on the ornament, scrub it gently with a dedicated aquarium-only brush during your routine water change. Do not boil the ornament, as extreme heat can damage the resin finish.
