Have over 20 pieces for sale, these sell for around 15$ online before shipping so it's a nice cheap source of wood for aquascaping.

13$ a piece
This is what it looks like wet
Will post pics in a little bit of actual stock

Dan, these are between 12-17" across, may be too small for the 300

It's hard to say from pics what pieces I'd want, but if he were to send you with some I'd definitely leave with a couple.

I'm looking for sort of longish/twisty pieces... not really sure how to explain it.

How fast does it deteriorate in the water? I thought it rotted out some what fast and was not so good in an aquarium.
How long does it usually take to sink?

Doesn't take long to sink and I've heard mixed reviews with rotting, it will develop a white slime at first then go away after a week or so

Ok did a little further reading online, some people have no no problems with this type
Of wood while a lot of other people say stay away it will fungus over and look and smell bad
Make your own decision but try at your own risk lol

I have in the past, especially if not fully submerged, for what it's worth. Definitely an awesome type of wood for reptiles. How long will you have this available?
