Terminating a bio father's parental rights without his consent is not something to do without a lawyer. One tiny little slip - one clause not included in the ruling, one tiny newspaper overlooked in your posting, one mistyped word in the notification - something as small as that could make the termination illegal and give your ex the right to contest it later and win his rights back. It's happened.

This isn't something to pinch pennies (or dollars, or even thousands of dollars) over. Knowing the laws inside out and exactly how to word everything is what lawyers do. In this case, I hope you hire one, even if you have to eat nothing but baked potatoes in a house without electricity for a month. Your ex doesn't sound like someone who will take this lightly, and you'll need the legal backing.
