I would think as long as there is some sort of current the only "fuzz" you might get is some natural hard algea's growing on it which will look nice anyways....

Do you mean that it is "fresh" grapewood, and not completely dried? Also, you must soak that dried wood for at least 2 weeks, so the sap wont stain your water, and tank. This should prevent the discoloration of your crystal clear water to amber color. But some fish like that color.
I agree with Vince, I cook any drift wood, etc at a simmer for an hour or so then soak it wieghted down in a bucket until it becomes waterlogged, daily water changes during that time period allow me to check for any leaching.
the grape wood is not fresh cut, it has been sand blasted and i have had it for about 5 months (with no idea on what to use it with) and i dont really mind the tainted look in the tank, but if it buggs me i will take it out and soak it for a long time.
