Looking for pieces of pet wood that are branched, twisted/knotted or look similar to driftwood. Basically, pieces that have retained some natural characteristics and actually look like wood, not boulders/rocks.
Would also consider buying driftwood if I'm not able to acquire pet wood.

Either one nice center piece or several smaller pieces. PM me if you have some pictures you can post or text to me.

Must be true thoroughly leached driftwood. Otherwise tannins from the wood stain the water and potentially mess with the biomass... Pet wood best bet.

I have gone through that process before where I would boil then soak locally collected wood to prepare for aquarium use. Just want to avoid the hassle. Plus pet wood is cooler anyway.
