Default Re: Found a new piece of Driftwood in the garbage today.

i always love "found on road" aquarium supplies...

i would treat the wood as if it had been used for reptiles and clean and soak it thoroughly. if its is the grapevine type of wood, it will take a long time to water log and release allot of tannins. however, if you wait it out it will look great. if your satisfied with the cleanliness's but it still floats... you could always reattach the base with plastic or coated screws.
