Nice wood
 
Haven't seen wood that good looking since last night ;)

Most people scrub the wood (lol) and boil it to remove dirt and any possible debris that may contaminate the tank. I found some pretty cool wood around my area but it's all soft wood (lol again) and I've heard that's not very healthy for the tank.
