Zoo Med BL-10E Floating Betta Log

I don't normally leave reviews but as I was hesitant to buy this and it actually turned out to be brilliant I thought I'd let others know. Works a treat, floats perfectly, looks natural, and my betta loves it.

Fantastic. Soon as I put in the aquarium my betta was straight in. He Ioves it. A must if you own a betta

Floats well betta loves to sleep in it and swim through it to play. Its really seen as a necessity for bettas.

My Betta love them. Only negative is they aren't that smooth on the inside, slightly worried about ripping a fin. Might put a bed of moss in them

I bought this for my betta fish he wouldn't use it at the start but now he loves it.

It arrived on time, in great shape. I wasn't sure if my betta would like it, but he loves it. Note that it can move around quite a lot in the tank if there is space above it due to the current. As long as I have the water level high enough it rests up against the lid which stops it moving, which is great. My fish loves to swim in and out of it when it is spinning, although I would be wary of leaving it loose in the water if you have much of a current running through as I would be concerned about it trapping his tail. I tied some moss to the bottom inside of the log which has worked really well, and we feed him mostly outside the log because he enjoys chasing his food, but always place the last piece in the hole at the top of the log, which he always leaves until last. The log was also useful when we added some amano shrimp to the tank as my betta was really curious about the ones that were at the top of the tank. After a little chasing (he ignores the shrimp at the bottom,) the shrimp worked out that they can climb on top of the log to escape him if they need to, and hung out there until they were more confident and had moved lower in the water. I am really fond of this product, as is by betta - definitely a worthwhile buy. Note that the size is about 3 or 4 inches cubed (about 8-10 cm cubed) and not as large as in the description.

Previously I'd purchased the Betta cave that sits on the bottom of the tank, however my little guy was unimpressed by it. That's probably because it's too deep and dark for him, without a hole on the top for him to easily come up for air. He investigated that for about three minutes and has ignored it ever since. This log is a different story. Much better suited to Betta fish, this floats near the surface with a feeding hole on that also acts as an air hole, allowing him to get air on the surface without leaving the log. Being open ended it also allows him to get a bit of respite and a break from the light in the aquarium without being pitch black. The log has been in the tank for a couple of hours and my Betta has been absolutely fascinated by it, exploring it inside and out, and now resting in it. I'll try and feed him via it going forward, but it doesn't look like he needs any encouragement to use it! I have it in my 30 litre aquarium. If you have anything smaller it may be a bit too big and take up too much space. It also floats freely. I have it at the back of the tank against one of my heaters, which stops it from floating about all over the place.

My Betta absolutely loves this! Since putting it in the tank yesterday,he hasn't left it alone! I had seen that another person had glued a sucker on to theirs,with aquatic glue and I did the same. The log obviously floating,kept bumping into things,it's so much better stuck to the glass. My betta is fairly big and he fits In their perfectly. My other shrimp or fish haven't gotten a look in,but I suspect that Tey would like it too. I may glue moss to it,just so it is a bit more inkeeping with the tank aesthetic. It doesn't look too bad looks wise, but you can obviously tell its not real wood!. Overall I word definitely recommend to Betta owners and would buy again.

With in 10 sec my Betta start using this log.

Good just as aspected

It looks so good floating in the tank. Doesn't look fake at all. My betta loves it and so does my amano shrimps. Really recommend it if you have bettas.

At first my betta loved it so much after a while i noticed his fins are thinning!! I thought it was fin rot and started treating him only to find out it was his log cutting his fins… i sanded it and all good now. انتبهوا قطعت زعانف سمكتي صنفروها زين اول .
