im getting some plecos but dont have any wood yet. i can probably get some soon though so will it be ok? the DW i was gonna use turned out to be soft wood
\i think plecos would be fine for a week without wood. think about it this way: many people's quarantine tanks are devoid of natural decorations (to make sanitization easier), and fish are in qt for much longer than week, including plecos.
it helps them digest.Not sure but I think the wood helps the plecos digest their food or something with their intestines.
pshhh im short on cash and live in TN im going looking for DW or spending cheap money on it, but thanks for the offerI will send you a large flat rate box full of wood for $25
