Mangrove Root/bogwood

[Whitey_144]

Hi,

I'm thinking or keeping Angelfish, apistos and catfish (in a mainly Amazon biotype).

Does anyone know of a good website to buy bogwood online? i especially would like to get my hands on a nice piece of mangrove root shaped wood (are mangrove trees found along some/same stretches of the Amazon as the fish i metnioned?). Then i can add Java moss/fern/anubias etc onto it.

Would this tank then look like the fishes natural habitat? or can anyone recommend better wood/plants?

Thanks,
Adam

Hi Adam,
Take a look on here http/www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/fish/decoration/natural_decoration or you could try Ebay, I saw some on there the other day.
I ended up buying some from my LFS which is still in soak as i type.

Hi Keith,

thanks for the link, it looks cheap there, they look fine for some of the pieces, but i was also looking for one bigger piece with more roots kind of.

I've checked Ebay and can't see any with many roots. i will keep looking though, because i guess they will pop up now and then.

when this snow melts, ill check out my LFS too

cheers,
adam

LFS prices can be a bit over the top as i found out, but i suppose its how soon you need it.

Good luck, Keith.
