I've got a 125g tank and have been looking online for the last few days but not finding a lot of selection out there. Are there a few guys that I might be missing, that might be local to the MFK community? I see alot of the Manzanita stuff but it's not my go to wood decor. If I have to I'll start looking at it, but I really do prefer the looks of Mopani. I'd appreciate any guidance here.

I failed to mention Malaysian as well. Mopani and malaysian are the two types of wood I am looking for.
 
You would be better off trying to find some mopani wood locally. The bigger pieces (over 18") are heavy (usually over 6 pounds) and shipping is expensive.
 
Large pieces locally (pensacola, Fl) aren't existent to my knowledge. Called the one independent place and the 2 chain stores with no luck on size. Shipping doesnt bother me if I can find key pieces that make the tank look good. You can't really put a price on a gorgeous scaped tank :)
 
I saw some pieces online at aquatico and jehmco.some of the plant websites have for sale also
