Aquarium Advice FINatic
I'm trying to get some newly purchased driftwood ready to add to my cycling 10g tank, and have been boiling it to kill any parasites and remove as much tannin as possible. In general, how long should I be boiling the driftwood before putting it in the tank? I should also soak it overnight so it won't float, correct?
I'm also getting a rock ready to place in the tank, and have been boiling it with the driftwood. Other than the vinegar test (to see if it will change water conditions), is there anything else I should do to the rock before putting it in the tank?
