boil the driftwood then soak it in hot water for 3 days changing the water twice a day. then purigen and carbon. lots of both. regenerate the purigen regularly and just replace the carbon.

2 days of carbon and my tank was starting to look good but the yellow is back! you can see it lengthways down the tank over moby's (the plecco) right shoulder
This mopani is annoying me anyone want to swap it for some smaller pieces of driftwood there are 2 pieces about 35"x40"
