    I have aquired brittle nose catfish for my tank. Apparently they want some wood in the tank. How do you get drift wood to sink.

    Thanks

    tie a rock to it and depending on the type of drift wood it'll get water lodged and sink by its self after a while.. some may never sink though.. i mean never as in it'll take a long long time for it to get water lodged..

    avoid the soft woods.. they tend to rot..

    Thanks

    It is a beautiful piece of wood but light, so the tie and sink will work.
