Okay given that I can’t see how long the tree is, but working only with what is pictured:
Assuming The person in the image is 6’ (adult average male is ~5’9”), and as tall as the back of my pen as pictured, the tree is about 30’ tall and 40’ long, and assuming approximate cylindricity (obviously imperfect but likely made up for by the actual length of the log), the volume of the log is about 5,183 cubic feet. Cholla driftwood usually has a volume of about 70 cubic in, or 0.041 cubic feet, meaning that this log has the volume of 126414 pieces of cholla, and amazon has 5 pieces for $13 ($2.6 each) here , soooo
$328676, plus the exorbitant cost due to rarity of the item, I’d expect to pay a little under a half of a million dollars for the piece.
Tank is about 4 years old.
The substrate is this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DH0QM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got 4 bags, which is about 2 inches thick.
I've been trying to grow plants, but haven't been having luck. Either the fish eat them or they die. I remove dead leaves & plants from the tank asap.
I also got these as someone recommended them for the plecos: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013RXJ53Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The plecos are maybe 4-6inches. They're 3ish years old.
I have these lights fixtures on the tank: https://www.amazon.com/Aqueon-Fluorescent-Deluxe-24-Inch-Actual/dp/B0002AS5BE and this bulb on the side of the tank with the plants https://www.amazon.com/Aqueon-Replacement-Floramax-Plant-Growth/dp/B004GWXDHA
