How to prepare:

 

1. Clean the Wood

• Rinse it thoroughly under hot tap water.

• Scrub with a clean brush to remove dirt and dust.

• Don’t use soap or chemicals. That can be toxic in your tank.

 

2. Soak or Boil the Wood

Goal: Saturate it so it sinks and leaches out any leftover tannins or debris.

Option A: Boiling (best if the wood fits in a pot)

• Boil for 1–2 hours. This kills bacteria and speeds up waterlogging.

• Change water if it gets dark—this helps remove tannins faster.

Option B: Soaking (for large pieces)

• Submerge the wood in a tub or bucket of fresh water.

• Use a rock to hold it down.

• Soak as needed, changing the water every few hours.

• You'll know it's ready when it stays fully submerged and the water stops turning brown (or only lightly tinted).

 

3. Place It in Your Aquarium

If it still floats, you can:

• Weigh it down with rocks/substrate

• Tie it to a slate or aquarium-safe weight

• Use fishing line to secure it temporarily
