Aquarium Advice Addict
Driftwood is ok but requires soaking for a few weeks first. It will leach tannins which will discolour the water and lower ph slightly. The tannins are harmless btw but unsightly to some.
The fish like them as it's a more natural look. Will you be using tap water?
You need to dechlorinate the water before hand as you will probably already know.
It best to test your tap water with the liquid kit too so you know what your tap water ph is and that the ammonia nitrite an nitrate are from the tap.
