Caryl Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 It is tannin from the wood. The fish, especially angels, love it and it does not harm them. Regular water changes and using carbon will slowly get rid of it in most cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie841 Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 The tannin actually is good for the fish and makes things more natural for them. If you want to get rid of it though you need to do lots of water changes and use lots of carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
