I've Seen some amazing tank set-ups with some killer pieces of wood. I'm stuck with mopani because thats all i can find. Where do you guys find your killer pieces of wood?
I live by the Mississippi river. After the river gets high in the spring (as it always does) I walk down to one of the bends where it washes up. You can look it up in the DIY on how to treat. It's cheap and you know you found it yourself.
most people buy manzanita because of the shapes. it's a super hard wood, does'nt take too long to sink, and lasts for many years without breaking down.
