I'm here in Texas for a visit and looking for wood I could add to my FW tank. There is a pile of deadwood at the place I am staying and I have been told it is from a Bodack tree also called the Horse apple tree. it has huge thorns on smaller branches that I would remove but kinda cool looking wood.
Anyone familiar with this wood? Could it be used in an aquarium? I know it will need to be boiled and all, but want to make sure it won't kill my fish.
Thanks for any help:thanks:
