Gucci Gourami Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) I bought 2 pieces of ghost wood from a local fish shop they were sand blasted. How do I make these pieces of wood aquarium safe? Edited November 28, 2020 by Gucci Gourami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 If they were sold at a fish shop, they're probably fine as is. If you can fit them in a pot, boiling for 10 minutes or so would help them sink/kill anything on them. You can also try baking them in an oven at 200 F for an hour or two (monitoring for safety of course). Personally I just boil, but I've also added in wood after just rinsing under tap water.

Fishmonger_X Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I've never boiled wood ever. I just stick it in my tank and if it wants to float I pile rocks on it until it gets water logged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
