Hi guys,

Does anyone know where I can find a large centre peice driftwood?

I would like the one that looks like a tree trunck with the roots going in various directions.

I think they mostly come from the Mangrove tree stups but I could not find any for sale in Sydney.

If someone has one or know where to get them please let me know.

Thank You

Most LFS carry driftwood with the description you have. I personally love these pieces too.

Try St George Aquarium as well, they have the biggest stockpile I've ever seen.

Just be prepared to do some digging, I have found some great pieces over the years... usually after moving 30-40 pieces of wood to get to the hidden treasures buried down below

large driftwood prices range from $30-$200.

When you're approacing the $100> mark, the pieces are very solid and suitable for 4ft tanks. If you get one that costs less, you've got a bargain.
