greenmonkey51    Fish Master Posts: 1571 Kudos: 1692 Votes: 5 Registered: 28-Jan-2004   | I saw these on the internet. There flexable jungle vines. There made for reptiles though. http://www.exo-terra.com/EN/products/jungle_vines_i.html i emailed the company and they said there not reccomended because of the wire inside. I cant see the wire being dangerous though. |

If it's made of aluminum it corrode, the same if its made of iron. They are right... You don't want it in your tank. Frank  -->>> The Confidence of Amateurs, is the Envy of Professionals <<<-- |
