Default Driftwood, lava rock and plants - Oh My
Was at my local PetSmart today and found a great sale. All the driftwood in the fish tanks are on sale for $4.97 with plants attached. They said PetSmart will no longer sell them. Also all lava rock with attached plants on sale for $5.97. I got 1 lava rock with an anubis nana and 2 driftwood, one with a small java fern and one with nothing attached. They threw in a small driftwood with a little moss on the top. I'm not putting in tanks right away so I can clean them up a bit. Love finding unexpected sales like this.

Are they real or fake? I see the roots on the plant but the driftwood doesn't look real.

They are real wood! Not the greatest pics I know, plus the driftwood is wet in the pics too. So I can see how you might think, fake. But they are real and I think they were a great deal. I might check back and see if they have anymore.

The anubis nana (petite, I think) on the lava rock is good and healthy too, even though it did have a lot of algae (which I had to pick off).

Love coming across those unexpected bargains! Anubis looks nice and plants (at least in my area) are very expensive.

The guy at PetSmart said that "PetSmart" was going to stop selling them. So I guess it would be on clearance sale at all their stores.
