Thanks for the tip!I will be keeping an eye on it...if it starts to look odd i will remove it.It is an oak branch and I made sure it was fully dried out..I cut off all the bark and boiled it for a full day on the stove until it was full of water and didnt leech anymore tannin.. Hopefully it doesn't rot...If it does I will just have to find a new stick I guess..
I was going to buy some driftwood at the petstore here but it was sort of expensive and I didn't like the way any of it looked...

[PewPewPew]

I hear you on that. Its expensive! They do sell wood, hardwood, like that stick. I forget what theyre called, but I know bobstropicalplants.com has it!

Newbie here - Just set up a 16G that I got for a STEAL at PetSmart for $30 (Reg. $120) Emerald is having the time of his life with it all to himself as he is the fish-in-cycle.

I started a thread asking for help on how to cycle the tank if anyone could give advice - much appreciated.

Here's a pic of Emerald in his new 16G. He's already built a bubblenest overnight.

Nope, that's not the same tank. Striking similarities in structure, but it's definitely not the same one; different shape, edging and lid. I'm fairly certain my tank isn't that small...currently it has four synthetic plants and a cave and it still has plenty of empty space.

Yeah, sorry bout that. I just realized there was one that was like 3G that looked the samemy bad
