Driftwood From The Beach In Aquarium

[Kizz]

Browsing ebay and have came across a great listing of driftwood collected from devon beach , will this be safe to use in my tank? should i just boil and scrub well to remove salt and bateria etc

thanks

Let it dry out and then pour boiling water over it, leaving it to soak, for two or three days

this may well turn out to be the best policy.
