    You didn't ask!! Lol

    Btw, make sure you wear a respirator or at least a kerchief over your breathing passages when crushing charcoal. It's nasty stuff.

    i cant believe it Lynn..... Really??? When you go to the store and see plants what does normal person think - thats right you are thinking if it is good for your tank, or the other tank, or then one you are gonna build after that. Now when you see charcoal, what do you think? Yeah that's right

    i think we are all normal, how it is our problem that everyone else is not?

    Lol not so fast fellas, i'm down in anticipation of my tank coming home with me tomorrow Hopefully the guy wont mess with me, he dealt with me 2 years ago, still remembers lol

    hey Lynn funny part (me building it) hasn't started yet

    Im getting isos and springs today and more plants ( blaming it all on you), and leaf litter and i hope nothing else. Im going into very dangerous territory of dart frog breeders and they live not far from me.

    I still cant get any wood i like Oh here is a question since i cant find anything outside, what out of commercially sold wood would work? I can totally steal smth from my geckos tanks.

    Haha! You're gonna have darts next!!

    I am very sad for you that you can't find any wood you like
    Commercial woods sold would be manzanita, ghost wood and mopani. And if you are lucky, you may be able to find some cypress knees available

    Next question

    orchid bark is fir bark not coco husk, ha!

    Is there any difference between fir, cypress and cedar bark? They look the same. Are all safe to use?

    Dart frog people were not available today darn

    You are correct m'lady, I freely admit to being wrong. I was told long ago that it was coco.y apologies for providing you incorrect information. Can you ever find it in your heart to forgive me?

    Well, they are all conifers. Obviously fir is safe if it is in ABG. I know cypress is safe because we can use cypress knees in our tanks. And I just don't like the smell of cedar, so I don't care about that one my guess would be yes to fir and cypress, but I thought there was something toxic about cedar??
