I always erred when adding that sort of stuff to an aquarium tank
full of fancy expensive fish, and the same caution should hold
for dry tanks full of gerbils. Just make sure that the branches
don't mold as they dry out, and make sure they're dry all the way
first. Else you will have humidity problems and molding within
the tank both on the wood and in the bedding.

Gerbil teeth are stronger because gerbils are more stubborn
on attacking poor defenseless cage accountrements with them.

Best to leave it out rather than have a gerbil get hurt. You
might consider instead putting a backdrop on the outside
of the tank back to add to the decor within the tank.

Good. People have used it and may get by for some time
with it, but sooner or later it maims or kills. It's best to be
safe than sorry.

You're welcome. Glad you located a pair of the
color you wanted.
