I found a piece of drift wood in by a little steam and I was wondering if I boiled it if I could put it in my tank if not please tell me ASAP
 
If it's from a hardwood like oak, you should be good to go. Strip any bark and give it a good boil to disinfect. It may not sink, so you may need to weigh it down.

You don't want softwood trees like pine ... Some of trees tend to have sap so you don't want getting it in your tank.
