Look It Up
This might be a silly question, but I wanted to ask before I used it and the searches I've done only result in driftwood that has been found from the ocean which isn't my question.
My cousin used to have a saltwater tank many years ago. He's since given away his tank and supplies but he did keep a piece of driftwood he had in the tank (it has a base attached to it). It's been stored in a box for a number of years. If I soak the wood in hot water for awhile do you think it's safe to use in my tank? Should I be worried about anything decaying or leeching from the wood that might have been in the saltwater tank? How long should I soak it before using it?
Thanks in advance.
