Where does everyone get your HUGE pieces of driftwood from? Do you buy them or find them? What kind of wood is it? I want a huge stump to go in my tank and I just don't know where to find it. Also if you have pictures of your huge pieces of driftwood PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post them. Thanks guys
 
I have a cypress swamp that produces a few pieces for me. I only harvest dead wood. It looks better than cut wood anyway.

ok thanks for the input guys. Are there any harmful types of wood out there that I should be aware about?
 
I try to search ebay for them. I see some every now and then. But don't let the pictures fool you I once bought one and it was tiny compared to what I was thinking it would be. The measurements dont always add up.
 
+1 for rivers or creeks, the faster flowing the better. Look for pieces that are submerged and have most of the bark already stripped off. If the worm is firm then the tequila is good, same case for driftwood to.

When you collect a lot of pieces and compare them to store prices, you will be amazed! The best pieces I have are the ones I found.
