Going to the creek this afternoon to look for driftwood and rocks. Any pointers before I head out??

Haha then watch out for snakes!! I got bit by one when I went lookin! Get me some good DW!
Just make sure you thoroughly disinfect anything you may bring home!!
Bleach& try boiling.... I live in fear now of accidently introducing anything 'unwanted' into my tanks! I dont know anything about rocks exploding but I guess anything is possible!
Jill said:I plan to boil. I did read about someone boiling a rock and it exploding! So if I find good rocks, I may need another method of disinfecting.
KlcoKN said:Maybe its like with eggs, if you start with them in cold water and bring it to a boil instead of dropping them in boiling water they would heat more evenly and not be as likely to break?
And avoid soft driftwood, I hear it rots in your tank!
