Sounds good just didnt recognise the roots thats why i asked! lol!

I just added drift wood to 2 of my tanks makes it look very natural but make sure you soak it long enough that the brown comes out of it as my 21 litre tanks water has turned a tea colour, although i think Sky likes it as he's since built me a few bubble nests.

I soaked mine for an hour in boiling water, it was quite a small piece of wood so depending on the size depends how long to soak.

What kinda plec is it? I only have the BN's, they need the wood as you know, i give them anything from the fruit and veg group as long as its not citrus fruits...mine tend to like cucumber, brocolli, banana, apple. Iv got them some carrot this week...
Do you use the screwcumber screw things so that the fruit or veg doesnt float up?

there BN`s if you look i the last vid you can see them,there only 1-2 inch.screwcumber where can you get these,last bit of cucumber i put in took a while to sink.only had them a week or so,to keep the tank algae free.looked up on them when i had the floating in the tank.lol.
got a nice piece of DW today soaking as we speak.

I nuke a slice of cucumber for a minute then cool it down with cold water and it usually sinks
right away. BTW I use water from a Brita as it supposedly removes over 98% chlorine.

you can get the screwcumbers cheap from ebay...
