Lava rock for volcano shrimp - how fitting. Just about any landscape supply places should carry lava rock especially if you are just looking for a small bag. Check you local HomeDepot and Rona as well.
I have a small pile in my yard you can take a small bucket as well but likely not worth your trouble and gas.

I have one of those hollow stumps in my South American tank with an air stone bubbling away like steam from a volcano.

That's a good idea with the volcano, it reminds me of grade 5 when we made a volcano fizz for science class. Although this tank is gonna be 2g and space is kinda limited.

haha.. Murphy's law.. when you get rid of something, that's when you need it soon after so you should keep everything.
