mickd Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 hi all 4 wks ago i got hold of some bog wood from the local shop and he said keep putting it in water until the water is clean then you can put it in your tank and it will be safe,its turn a darker brown but not very dark,well every time i change the water i notice that the wood feels like it has slime on it,so i hose it off every time and it feels fine only to find the slim on it again next time...is this ok to use and is this normal thanks again mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanoz Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Bleach it mate and hit it with boiling water. Make sure you rinse really well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
