how long should I be soaking drift wood before putting it in my tank?
I've got a piece soaking for a week and a half. The water is still
brownish. Should i keep going until the water doesn't change colour? Or
can I put it in my tank already? Thanks in advance.


I'm still waiting for some gnarled bits of willow root
to sink. It's been soaking in a tub of water since july.

I'm a patient person, but I think it may be time to
screw some to some slate.

I've also heard of drilling a hole and filling it with melted metal (tin,
zinc, lead?). Could also pour some concrete in. The metal you would
need to cap with some silicone.
