I got some reptile driftwood. I think it was made specifically for reptile use because one piece is constructed like a shelf. I was wonder if this type of driftwood can be placed in an aquarium with fish? Reptile driftwood treated? Thank for your help.
 
How heavy is it? Is it really dense?
 
it is probably treated to remove oils from it if it is for reptiles so there won't be any leaching into your tank, it will be fine so long as it does not have any chemicals or colorant.

I thought it should be fine. I put them in a tub of water. I'm going to let them soak for a week. I'll post some pictures soon.
 
Ive used grapewood before and It worked just fine. I bought it at a reptile shop. Just takes a while to sink..
