Ok after looking for weeks at shops for a decent peice of treated driftwood but they are either way outta my price range for the peices I want (100 dollars for a peice of wood to sit in my tank yeach!). So I went down to the bayou and found a gorgeous peice. I went about treating it. Rinsed off all of the mud (2/3rds of it was actually stuck in mud) and after I soaked it in the tub a coupla times, I noticed that the water was clear. Then I began to mull over it and scrape away any dead or rotting bark, which actually is all over it. Basically after I scrub it down, is there anything else I should do to it before I introduce it to my tank? I was thinking about varnishing it, but Im afraid Id lose the exellent texture and it would look fake. Any suggestion/ideas?
