Cleaning driftwood

[Austin]

If it's a large piece of driftwood, you definitely want to make sure that it is waterlogged.
I tried putting some large driftwood in my 125 and it didn't work. It was not waterlogged so the pressure was pretty extreme to try and get it underwater

exactly

Put it in the tank and ride it out. Water changes like a mofo, maybe some chem filtration if it's not too much of a hassle for you. Getting rid of the tannins just takes time...sometimes lots of time.

i don't care about tannins. it's other stuff i worry about. it's fine soaking in the tub for a while. water changes on a 300 get expensive if you're doing enough to keep tannins out. no point...
