For Sale: Cypress Driftwood – Piece 3 $25 OBO (dial up warning)

[clayt101]

I will be attending the Houston Aquarium Society Auction on June 17. I will bring a few pieces to auction off, but I am selling the best ones individually (you will have to pick it up at the auction).
Keep in mind that I drive an hour down to Pierre Part, pick out what I consider to be the best pieces for an aquarium, and then buy it from the collector. I then pressure wash it, attach it to thick slate using stainless steel screws, all of which I also pay for. I use this same process for the driftwood that I keep in my tanks.
Here is where I get the driftwood:



Here I am cleaning it (ladies, please control yourselves):



Here are examples of the driftwood in my tanks:





On to the piece that is up for sale. It has the number "3" on it. It is 3 cypress knees, mounted on broken slate. The price is low because this used to be in my aquarium. The slate is thin and broken.













I am asking $25 obo. Just shoot me a PM.

The guy collects it and turns it into art. He produces some really nice pieces like the statue of liberty, world trade center, people etc.

I buy pieces from him that I think will go well in an aquarium. I go down there once a year or so.
