Where Do You Guys Go For Your Decor (Rocks, Wood, Stones)?

[Zekumi]

This has been driving me crazy. I feel like I'm majorly missing something.

Where do the lot of you go to get your natural decor, like giant stones, rocks, and driftwood? So many of you seem to have such interesting pieces, but I can't for the life of me figure out where you get them.

I get mine wood from my LFS, and the rocks from around my house.

Local burn.

Sometimes I get smallish bit of bogwood from the lfs if they are nice shapes, but otherwise everything I just get from the burn. I pour boiling water over stones and let wood soak in RO water for a few weeks.

Find a landscaping outfit, the sort that deal with large loads of various landscaping materials. Go there on a really foul day, when they don't feel like dragging out the small scale for a less than 1/4 ton purchase.

Years ago I got a few hundred pounds of rock for $12, gave some away, use some in tanks, the rest decorates my yard. It was snowing, I was the only customer there, the guy didn't even want to leave the building. Large rocks for life.

I get real wood and fake plants from Big Al's, pretty pricy tho. Petsmart is good tho for real plants and fake decor, cheaper too. Check out my tank video in my sig, see if u'll find something u might like.
