FishyMike Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Hello everyone I recently (about 3 weeks ago) added new Ghostwood dirft wood to my tank and was very close to a perfect fit! But it kept floating. I said To my self I would just keep it in and let it soak... fast forward 3 weeks I can’t close my lid 🙈did it change size? Anyone experience this before? Or is it just me? Maybe it just shifted but I can’t close my lid..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Puhr Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 If the wood was dry as it becomes water logged it will expand. You may have to readjust its location for a better fit. It will most likely not get any bigger once its fully waterlogged. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 the above poster is correct. as wood dries, it shrinks, when rehydrated it will expand again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishyMike Posted April 5, 2021 Author Share Posted April 5, 2021 Had to break a small piece off of it but fits perfect now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
