FAQs
Is this ornament safe for goldfish?
Yes, it is manufactured from fish-safe materials and is perfectly suitable for coldwater fish like goldfish.
Can I use this in a saltwater tank?
This ornament is designed for freshwater (tropical and coldwater) aquariums and is not recommended for saltwater use, as salt may affect the finish over time.
Does it need to be cleaned before use?
Yes, always rinse the ornament with fresh, dechlorinated water before placing it in your aquarium to remove any manufacturing dust.
Will the paint chip off into the water?
The product is made from fish-safe materials designed specifically for aquariums; it is stable and does not chip under normal usage conditions.
How do I secure the two pieces together?
The pieces are designed to be placed near each other. They do not have a locking mechanism, but they can be stabilized by burying the edges slightly into your gravel or sand.

Push the base of the ornament deeper into the substrate to provide a stable anchor.
Algae growth on the surface
Remove the ornament and scrub it with a clean, soft brush; ensure you do not use chemicals or bleach.
