Yesterday I put a peice of wood in my tank after boiling for several hours. Any way this morning I find that there is a milky color slime on it, is that normal? What is it?
I boil for an hour then soak in a bucket for 2 days and I don't get that. Boiling cuts down the time but you should still do a soak afterwards. Thats just from my expierience though.
I didn't boil.
Have store purchased wood & soaked for 8 days.
Used extremely hot tap water and changed it every day or two.
It's been in the tank for 5 days and doing good.
No water discoloration.
Fish all love it.
