ok guys, let me know if anything sticks out as nice enough to ship off. remember, this wood is untreated.

What are you supposed to do to make it safe for aquariums?

I'm very interested for a size that's good for a 20g Long >.<

Where in California are you?

damn... That's driftwood heaven right there. I am so jealous... That's too far from the San Jose area

I would pay for shipping though

Do you remember how big this one is?

Thanks

^ i believe that piece was about 4' long. i only had a few minuets yesterday so i just took some random shots. when i go back there with more time, i'll pick out some stuff more suitable for our tanks.

does anyone know what kind of dimensions they're after? that would help!!!

Uhm, a 20 gallon long is 30" x 12" x 12". I guess, at least 24" long?

Thanks
