Hello,
I've read that some people varnish pieces of bamboo before placing them in their tank. Can anyone tell me firstly, is this safe? If so, which varnish should be used? Lastly, would varnishing my bogwood stop the tannins being released into the water? Even after weeks of soaking before putting the wood into my tank, it is still staining the water a tea colour.
Thanks
Tomo
