Bob Wesolowski Mega Fish Posts: 1379 Kudos: 1462 Registered: 14-Oct-2004 | Great looking piece! Nice branching with hollows that will provide structure for your fish to relate to in the tank. Price is excellent to buy it now... Soak it for a while in a large rubber maid container to see if it bleeds tannins or has any peculiar guests. __________ "To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research." researched from Steven Wright |

I agree, though it appears they have it out of water, so I doubt any guests will still be on it. But you never know. And, depending on your setup, you may want to keep the brown water from the tannins. I have several tanks that I add the brown water, or black water as it is usually termed. It will color your water a yellowish color. For SA, and CA, I have used it as a trigger to get some fish to spawn. And actually, have used it as a trigger to get some of the harder to spawn Rift Lake cichlids to spawn as well. There is always a bigger fish... |
