Every driftwood piece is unique, giving the aquarist the chance to create something new and exciting with each set up. To start with, having a certain look in mind will make it easier to find a suitable piece. Browsing at pictures online or looking at pieces in a shop are great ways of getting ideas as to what type of driftwood you may end up using.
There are many different types of driftwood to choose from. There are others but it will depend on what is available in your area. Once you have selected your desired piece, preparing it is the next step. Getting your driftwood ready for the aquarium does not take much effort. Firstly clean the driftwood with a brush to remove any excess dirt or debris. Some driftwood when purchased will need to be soaked so it can become waterlogged and sink.
Driftwood needs to be waterlogged to stay submerged in the aquarium, otherwise it will float to the surface. Some driftwood sinks straight away where others will usually take 1 — 2 weeks, even up to a month. As driftwood absorbs water, it will leech Tannins back into the water. Tannins Tannic Acid are a natural compound found in wood to help protect the tree from Fungi, bacteria and insects. Soaking your driftwood will help to remove any excess tannin.
Tannins leech into the water staining it a light yellow to brown colour. The amount of Tannins leeching from the driftwood in your aquarium will not be enough to harm your fish. Although in the Amazon River in Blackwater habitats, the waters are extremely high in tannins and only certain fish can live in this environment.
To soak the driftwood, place it into a bucket or tub, making sure the whole piece is submerged. Post by Marshie Man » Fri Oct 07, am. Post by anastasia courtney » Sat Oct 08, pm. Post by Who » Sun Feb 24, pm. Post by Dirtgirl » Tue Jan 06, am.
