This is the latest batch all pre soaked and cleaned up. Fair amount of variety with this batch. I decided to illustrate "how to" mount and what to use for doing this, the pics should be self explanatory. With respect to the positioning, this is where you might wish to think out side the box, think what and how things might appear like in a natural system, along a stream, lake bottom, deep river, shallow planted pool, backwater etc.
This is where you can get the most out of the wood and have it stay put. I'll also take some pics to help folks think about how their wood will look like after the plants grow in some. I think many end up burying their wood too much and add too many plants.
You can pre drill holes and use screws(best) You can also use epoxy or, gel super glue. Be sure to lard on the glue, you'll need it and then make sure to wipe off excess. The other method is to use slate and pre drill with a ceramic drill bit and then screw on to the slate. Make a nice clean flush flat cut in the base of the wood at the angle you desire, this will keep the connection at the wood/slate tight and not loosen later on.
This wood also offers a lot of opportunities for non CO2 ideas or pure wood scapes for say, Shrimp or plecos or even herbivores.
I'll be adding these pics tomorrow and a whole new list of a wood.
Gerry has 1st pick
From there, others can go after it.
In general, you pick the pieces you want, then I toss in a few extras depending on what I have and the size of the order. I will add more extra freebies as folks buy larger amounts of larger pieces to best complement what your scaping goal is.
In general, 2ft pieces, : 15-20$; 3ft around 20-30$, 4ft and larger 40-60$.
Nicer gnarled pieces, ask. Small burly stumpys: 15-25$. Small collection for 10-20 gallon of smaller branches(great if you do the slate attachment and saw off the ends to screw on) maybe 20-30$. You can do many cool layouts with the about 8$ worth of slate, drill bits and screws.
I can ship up to about a 55" inch long piece or so.
USPS parcel is cheap to ship. UK cost about 100$ for largest max box sizes, but I can get a lot of wood in there, Canada is not bad either, maybe 50-70$ or so.
I've tested this stuff with high grade CRS's SS+ grades etc......they love the stuff.
Plecos, loaches, tetras etc.
If you are not happy, PM me, I'll take care of it.
