That wood is absolutely amazing. You should get that guy to start selling some of that good stuff on here
I wish I knew his source. :grinyes: I could find this stuff anywhere...including online. This guy can order as much as I want. He ordered the two pieces I got on Wed. and had them in his store for me the next day...
I don't know what this stuff normally goes for, but I paid $15, $30, and $40 for the 3 different pieces. If it's high....I didn't care at that particular time. I just had to have it.

I wish I was a fish I wish.
Oops... Just realized I left out a "not". I meant to say I could NOT find this stuff anywhere. If anyone is interested in getting some of the stuff...I could see if the guy would be willing to ship and post his info.

Spider wood seems to be a made up name. I wonder if this stuff is manzanita wood or that nice english bog wood or whatever it is. I guess by giving you a bogus name it keeps you going to your contact for more. Keep asking him what kind of wood it is. Maybe he'll give in.

"Spiderwood" is just a name I've seen to describe this type. Just sounds better than "pile of roots".
What I've looked for in the past and what I couldn't find anywhere is the "rooted" driftwood. I've searched several local stores and several internet sights and everything I see is more "stumpy"...or more solid limbs. This place looked promising....but they aren't answering e-mails and there's a note saying they aren't shipping: http://www.aquariumdriftwood.com/driftwoo.htmIf anyone else knows a good source of driftwood that would have similar stuff to what this guy can get I'm definitely interested.
I asked the guy what type of tree the roots came from when I bought the first piece and he said he didn't know. I'll ask him again on Tuesday. "Did you ever find out what type of wood that stuff I bought is?".
