Ted,
I use regular Sphagnum peat from HD. Large bale cost around $8.
Large filter bag (14" x 10") filled with peat soaks in 30gal. container filled with RO water.
It takes about a week to bring pH down to 5. I use drift wood and oak leaves directly in tanks if lower pH is required.

Hi Aquacave
How many peat moss did you gave into your 30 gl conatiner? What species of oak leaves do you use?
