Jadenlea Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 How many darn days does it take to water log it? Ive had it soaking in a tub of water for 2 days and its still happily floating. It is to late now, but for future reference, would it have done anything helpful to add bactar ae to the soaking water so it could start growing biofilm while it is just sitting there.

Wygglz Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 I've had them take a week sometimes depending on the size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve R. Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 It is helping if you can submerse it with a weight (stones etc.). It took 3-4 days for me for big pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr0p Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 It takes a while, mine was the better part of a week or so. Adding weight to keep it submerged helps a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETAquarium Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Manzanita Branches I usually soak for two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayphly Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 With manzanita i give it a good scrub after soaking it. It helps remove any remaining bark which can end up deteriorating and dirty the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
