Petsmart sells mopani driftwood in varies sizes. It does need to be cured before adding it to the aquarium.
This site explains the curing process-
I like the idea of using cinder blocks, it’s unique. At least you know it will be strong enough.
I bought my driftwood from a website called
It took about ten days, but they were fairly cheap. The wood is good and I only had to soak it for about two hours to get all tannins out.
As for the stand, I’m not sure if you want an actual stand. I’ve always used strong tables for my stands.
you dont even have to buy it
you can go to the beach and pick up some drift wood, all you have to do is boil it and its perfectly safe
there is no link for a video on oyur tank
i would build a stand if you have an interest in carpentry, if not, walmart is cheap
