I have a bunch of oak branches but was kind of afraid to put them in the tank. Click to expand... I just soak and clean them in hot water. You may get some white growth start to develop after a few days, but this can appear on any type of wood. The growth is completely harmless and sometimes the fish will nibble on it. Thanks for the comments guys. Lee.
