I've read on the forum that this should be boiled and baked... only one problem, all we have is a microwave and a NuWave oven, so no way to do the first two :/ Other then the tannins this wood says safe for aquarium use, so would it already be presterilized/heat treated? Could I get away with soaking it in very hot chlorinated tap water, and then soaking it in filtered spring water with dechlorinator, until most of the tannins are out...?
