Hello

I just got a piece of driftwood from the store. I scrubbed it with a toothbrush to remove loose pieces and put it in a bucket of water to saturate it and make it sink(for a week or two I think), also to remove the tannins. But I read that boiling driftwood will speed up the process. Does this mean that it will make the driftwood become waterlogged quicker?

Thanks in advance!

When we got a piece of mopani driftwood a couple weeks ago, I boiled it for about 15 minutes or so and let the wood sit in the water until it cooled. It sunk to the bottom of the tank.

Thanks, COBettaCouple! I'll go boil it right away.

Thanks again!
