For aquarium use, all natural wood products leach tannins, which can discolor water and reduce pH levels. To minimize this effect, soak the wood in a separate container and change the water daily. When the water color changes from dark brown to a light "tea" color or clear, the wood is ready for your aquarium. Adding extra carbon can help remove any remaining discoloration.
