Hi all
New to the whole aquascape thing. I have had fish tanks over the years but have not really planted them properly.
I plan on using dark start to get my new tank set up but have a quick question about the mangrove wood I have for it. They were bought from an aquatic shop but do they need to be soaked before I start the scape or will the 3-4 week dark start period be sufficient to soak out any tannins? I am happy to do a few water changes to remove the tannin stained water.
Thanks in advance.
