- Can I just buy the driftwoods sold in pets store or mail-order places and
- just drop it in the tank? Can I assume that these driftwoods already bleach,
- soak, clean, boil, etc. to get all the nasty stuff out? I would like some
- of these in my tanks but if I have to boil and soak them for a few months,
- I think I can go without them. Beside if this is the case, I can just pick
- up any piece of woods in the park instead of selling out big bucks for them
- at the store.
- Some of these driftwoods claim to have been cleaned by sand blasting. Does this
- method get rid of the nasty parasites?
