Hello All!

I am in need of help. I need to be pointed into the right direction for find asquascaping materials for my tank. I cant not find any manzanita wood, or large rocks Locally. I would rather see my items and actually touch them over ordering online and not seeing my product. I have Ex-Cichlidsoma Festa and I want to mimic there natural environment as close as I can. I have been to House of Tropical and Beltway Aquarium and came out empty handed. Any suggestions?

Stone Center, Manassas, VA, has acres of large stones. Last time I scaped a 125g Tangy tank, it cost me 6$.

I'm totally with you about buying based off pictures only. I have a gorgeous tree stump in my 20 extra high that was a pretty big risk. You just don't get a good enough sense of width. I wasn't that impressed with house of Tropicals big bin either, but I did pick up an absolutely gorgeous piece off their racks for my 40
