I don't have any extras of those things right now, but I can offer some sightings.

Driftwood: I've seen / bought decent pieces at SuperPetz. They have lots of tannins in them though. I may also be confusing this with bogwood... the wood I got there is the gnarled dark brown kind. Either way, the pricing and size / interesting shapes beat the snot out of PetCo's selection.

Slate Rocks: Don't know if this'll match what you're looking for, but I've bought a piece of slate tile at Home Depot or Lowes (can't recall which) and put it in between pieces of cardboard and smacked it up with a hammer... the resulting chunks made for naturalish looking decor material. Eye protection advised.

Bob's Tropicals has larger, more varied / natural looking slate pieces (and other rocks), and they also tend to carry Java Moss and Java Fern (but were out of moss a week or two ago; probably replenished by now). Both plants are very robust with whatever lighting you thow at them.

thanks for the info iv looked around and havent really seen what iv been trying to find

hey i seen some slate rocks on ebay BIG pieces of it in arkansas i believe iono if it was any help but ya might try there

I'm about to di it myself, so I will soo post a DIT slate rock, but from what I've been told on TPF, you can go to a local Home Depot or Lowes and by sheet rock in squares. Then, put a towel around it and hit it with a hammer to make smaller pieces.

I have also seen slate at the Germantown Hollywood Petstar, but their selection kinda really sux...

But, like I said I'll post a DIY soon, full with pics and all.
