Benefits of Using Oak Wood in Aquariums The curing and scrubbing process might sound like a lot, but the hands-on time doesn’t exceed two hours. If the oak log you’ve found is without holes and relatively small, the total involvement will be even shorter than that. Modern agriculture uses a wide gamma of chemical compounds to fight illnesses and pests.
