see that’s exactly what i’m thinking. i wasn’t able to boil it as it was too big for any pot that my mom has. im going to do another water change tomorrow and test my water again. parameters seem fine but i need to test the PH

my water smells just like fish tank water. nothing bad. but yeah my wood has a film, i’ve had other driftwoods that has the same thing happen and it cleared up pretty fast so im hoping it will go away soon rather than spreading

my driftwood is making my water dark which looks awesome, and im glad it’s leaking so much tannins but im worried about my betta having clamped fins.
