Aquarium Advice FINatic
I am currently running a 6gal. planted tank, no ferts, no CO2 and I added a piece of mopani wook a few weeks back. I boiled it on the stove for about an hour until most of the tannins were out. I haven't seen any color leach into the water, so I assumed I was safe.
I did notice a sap-like residue all around the rim of my pot. That was fun to clean.
Did I do this correctly? Is there any harm to this wood being in my tank? I've had a few guppy deaths in the past few weeks and I'm trying to work backwards and see what might have caused it.
