Review on 🐠 Premium Natural Cholla Wood: Perfect Decor for Aquarium, Shrimp, Hermit Crab, & Small Pet Chew Toys by Ashley Ray

In the original instructions, the seller says "either cook the wood or soak it in hot water" to leach the tannins out of the wood. I recommend boiling as I now have freshwater lice in my shrimp tank. I haven't added anything new to the tank in the last 3 months other than firewood and daily feeding. I soaked my firewood for over a week but I was so frustrated that I didn't cook it. My aquarium is infested and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do to get rid of this unwanted pest from my aquarium. Very dissatisfied with myself for not cooking them first and very dissatisfied with this purchase.
