Hi! Benthic mud can be found at the top layer of mud in lakes, rivers, or streams. After a quick Google Search, I did find some bodies of water in Los Angeles, however, if none of these are near you, the introduction of the experiment did mention that electrogenic bacteria can also be found in simple soil, so this can be used as an alternative. Good luck with the experiment, and let us know if you have any other questions!
Best,
Chloe
