ADGshop uses some type that's nice, look at adgvibe on YouTube at the amazon setup. They sell it. Then there's Malaysian driftwood that you can get anywheres really.

local lake and then treat it. supposedly certain woods can mess with your water parameters. guess I've been lucky time and time again (not trying to be sarcastic, but guess I'm lucky I haven't grabbed something that would hurt my water chemistry for discus).

du3ce,

I have some I would love to sell you. I bought a big box of mixed pieces online and only used like a third of what I got. it is manzanita wood, can be made into several cool scapes.

du3ce,

I am checking shipping now. I have a friend who works for fedex so I might could ship them for free. how big is your tank. the two biggest pieces I have are about 2' long and curved/curly. I think if your tank is larger than like 40 gallons you might want two large pieces and two or three of the smaller pieces to compliment them. they sink well. I have only had mine in the tank since Wednesday night and they have all already sunken completely. let me check with my friend. I think if I had to ship UPS it would be less than 15 dollars.

du3ce, let me see how much shipping will be. I don't want to charge you an arm and a leg so if shipping is high I will go lower on the price of wood. I would like to get around $15 a piece, I think that's fair. plus shipping and handling (if I cant get it for free) If I cant get the shipping for free I will do probably $10 a piece so that you don't end up paying a ton for wood.
