Their bizarre shape creates a unique look that immediately enhances any terrarium. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong>Opuwa roots<\/strong> consist of a very <\/span><span class=\"s2\">very hard and durable root wood<\/span><span class=\"s1\">. This makes them ideal for permanent use in terrariums. At the same time, the sandblasted surface provides a particularly interesting texture that is both decorative and popular with many animals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Their angled shape creates natural <\/span><span class=\"s2\">natural caves, crevices and hiding places<\/span><span class=\"s1\">which are readily accepted by terrarium inhabitants. Especially   <\/span><span class=\"s2\">Isopods, millipedes and other invertebrates<\/span><span class=\"s1\"> use such structures as a retreat or as a protected place in the terrarium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In addition, the root creates <\/span><span class=\"s2\">more structure and different levels<\/span><span class=\"s1\">  within the terrarium. This creates additional movement areas and natural paths that many animals like to explore. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In addition to its function as a hiding place, the root is also a convincing <\/span><span class=\"s2\">decorative design element<\/span><span class=\"s1\">. The gnarled shape and natural wood color ensure a particularly authentic appearance. A natural terrarium landscape can be created with just a few elements. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The <strong>Opuwa root<\/strong> fits particularly well in <\/span><span class=\"s2\">tropical or natural terrarium layouts<\/span><span class=\"s1\">but can also be used in drier setups. Its stable structure allows it to be positioned in various ways &#8211; horizontally, at an angle or as a towering structure in the terrarium. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As it is a <\/span><span class=\"s2\">natural product<\/span><span class=\"s1\">  the individual roots differ in shape, size and structure. It is precisely these differences that make each <strong>Opuwa root<\/strong> truly unique and give your terrarium a particularly natural look. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">With the <\/span><span class=\"s2\">sandblasted Opuwa root<\/span><span class=\"s1\"> you get a durable, decorative and functional terrarium structure that enriches both your animals and the overall look of your terrarium.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unique terrarium structure with Opuwa root The sandblasted Opuwa root is an extraordinary natural wood from Africa and brings a particularly exotic and natural structure into your terrarium.
