Bamboo in aquarium

So it is not suitable in aquarium, ok thanks, maybe some kind of alternative to a bamboo? Branches is sometimes hard to find cheap here or collect is not an option, work takes too much time🙂

I doubt that, maybe you are reffering to lucky bamboo .. and that's another story 🙂

One of OK's bamboo scapes to see the evolution:

I'd drill some holes in the bamboo to release the air if it tends to float.

So it is safe to use? And if air released its not going to float or it need to be fixed somehow to stay under water?
 
Dry bamboo as far as I see in my aquarium it's safe, no fish complained about it 🙂, if you have deep soil and the sticks are not that thick they may not float, if they do, just weight them with smth for a while until they soak some water.

Nope, happened to me, but I intentionally chose the non coated stuff as I worried about the coating in the aquarium...couldn't find anything at the time to say the coating was ok so tried uncoated, pretty much a horrid lump of slimy mush after a couple of months
