A piece of wood leaving an oil slick is pretty easy to identify as trouble.
How hard is it to ID driftwood? Does it matter if one keeps up water
changes? If most of the trees in an area are limited to a couple of species,
probably identifying the driftwood would be do-able. Is that what people
usually encounter?
Thanks,
