An oscar alone, when full grown needs at least a 55g tank. The Rainbow shark gets pretty big, the silver dollar will get pretty big and if the pleco is a common pleco it will get about a foot long. Time to rethink stocking. Yes a picture of the wood will help us identify what is on it. It could be a number of things. *Kristin*
