Where do you get your driftwood and what is your review of it through the time it has been in your aquarium or since you've had it?

i got most of my driftwoods in cleared forest areas and rivers.. and i took some very hard and heavy one.. the ones tht i picked from the cleared forests it will usually not sink. i'll just weigh it down using a rock or something and eventually it sinks. i got some very unique shapes as well. i have nver bought any driftwoods in my life, ever.
The first day my p's were in the tank, they bit my manzanita 
I get all my driftwood from ebay BTW

Hi souzie, nice shoal. Just letting you know that it might be best to get a few more if they are available. They're really cannibalistic especially when young. I started with ten two years ago and I'm down to four now.
Ebay. Good driftwood is hard to come by and pricey too, especially if you want something big and dramatic with holes, arches and cover.
All my driftwood came from my LFS, sometimes the LFS owner take me to the driftwood warehouse so I can look and hand pick each piece. I don't like the giant driftwood though, I love to collect small/medium pieces then combine them into "weird shape" 
(handy work required to stack or combine those woods together).
