Review on 🏰 Penn-Plax Castle Aquarium Decoration: Realistic Hand-Painted Tower Standing Over 14.5 Inches High | Part A by Sonya Lewis

This is the left side of the two pieces. This is RRW9 and the right side is RRW10. They don't match exactly in the middle as one is bigger than the other. I took a large file and spent almost 2 hours hand sanding the bottom of the right side until it matched the left side. I just couldn't put such a beautiful object in my aquarium if it didn't show its perfection. Another thing to mention are the beautiful colors and they seem to come alive when the piece gets wet. Outside the decoration itself is intact but I can't tell what's inside. Removing this part from the mold should be difficult as the bottom and inside of each part has very sharp edges and points. Unfortunately, the manufacturer did not pay attention to the fact that the fish in it is safe. You must take the time to file down those sharp edges or I guarantee your little friends will be ripping their bodies apart. It wasn't difficult, the material where there are sharp spots is easy to grind into a powder, it just takes time. The sharp spots clear up to the towers of the castle towers, where no sand can be reached, so I recommend filling the towers and small gaps with filter material, not only to prevent the fish from scratching, but also to keep the fish away from it keep swimming up. up and stuck. Eels and other snakes like water snakes love to climb to the very top and if they die there it will be difficult for you to remove them as space is limited. The packaging was great, each came separately but I don't know why one was shipped by FedEx and the other by USPS as I ordered both together. I have this ornament in a 55 gallon tank and it measures 22 1/2 inches long, 15 inches high and 11 inches deep. For those of you considering this purchase I have included photos of the sides of the shipping box so you can make sure you are ordering the correct items as I know the descriptions are quite confusing. I hope this review helps you decide if this piece is right for you. I've never spent that much on an aquarium decoration, but honestly, it's worth every penny! I am NOT getting paid for this review, I'm just an aquarium lover like you and make a lot of my online decisions based on what others say in their reviews.
