Default WTB: Cheap Drift Wood/Hydroponics stuff

Well like it says. I need some cheap drift wood. Now "cheap" could mean going down to the Great Miami river and picking up some dead wood. Unfortunately that scares me. The little critters I'll be putting with this drift wood are probably quite fragile...

So perhaps someone has some "used" drift wood... that was once in your tanks.. and you got tired of it floating or don't need it anymore.. something like that.

I also am looking for leca balls... round clay balls... found in "hydroponic stores." Just wondering if anyone has any leads to these in the Cincinnati area?

Thanks for your help!

Chris

Sounds like you are gonna set up the frog tank in the near future!

Is the wood for the frogs or the Shrimp? I will check and see if I have anything I want to part with and bring it with me tomorrow.

Well I want them to be for the frogs... (it takes almost a month for the terrarium to "settle" before adding little creatures). I'd be more prone to using Great Miami River wood for plants... as I don't care if a $.50 plant dies.. when little $45 creatures kick the bucket because Fernald ran into the water.. that's why I'm looking for "conditioned" wood...

What kind of frogs are you keeping Chris?
