I found this seller on eBay in America and it looks like a goldmine of rocks and driftwood does anyone know about this seller and are any of the pieces of rock in the store or pieces of driftwood not ideal for aquariums?

Driftwoods and quartz rocks are safe. I'm not sure about the Texas holey rock isn't. I believe it will increase the pH.

The wood looks nice but even if it is pre soaked it will still give the water a slight coulored tinge. The limestone holey rock will definately harden your water as the limestone itself begins to disolve at a PH of around 6.5-7. So the limestone rock may act as a kind of buffer if you had enough of it, which is not necceserilly a bad thing as many people keep zebs in hardwater conditions. You would just have to keep an eye on your Ph readings.
