Review: Great size. Pieces between 1 abs 2 inches. - Just what I wanted
Review: Unique and Beautiful Stones - These are real slate, and 99.99% pure slate. Jet black color with virtually no marbling. I bought all three sizes and am VERY pleased with all. Washing is recommended but scrubbing is not really necessary. They look really beautiful in a freshwater fish aquarium. The shapes are varied as expected, but perfect and natural. Unless you have unlimited time to search for less expensive sources and options, these are worth the expense.

## Features

- 100% natural stone that is safe for your aquarium and has been sourced, washed, and packaged by our family owned business in the USA. The color is a matte slate grey with a hint of blue. Each package is a mix of stone from 1 to 3 inches (some stones may be slightly above or below this range).
- AQUARIUMS - Ideal for aquascaping planted, fresh or saltwater aquariums, paludariums, and various tank styles like biotope, Iwagumi, Dutch, nano, and betta tanks. The deep grey color of this stone enhances plants and tank inhabitants. Glue or grout them to create small cliffs, caves, mountains, berms, paths, and walls. Lay flat, stand on end, or angle with support. Use with larger pieces, smaller stones, and gravel for a realistic scene. Attach to medium/small driftwood to prevent floating.
- REPTILE ENCLOSURES - Perfect for smaller reptile enclosures as basking and climbing stones and feeding stations in terrariums, vivariums and other pet enclosures. They can be glued together to create caves, cliffs, berms, walls. These stones naturally hold heat well. Use with our larger pieces to create an attractive and natural environment for your pets.
- MINIATURE - Perfect for creating walkways, benches, walls, steps, archways, caves/caverns, ground cover (patio), water falls and much, much more in dioramas, miniature or fairy gardens, mossariums, miniature models and model railroads. We offer several larger and smaller sizes to create a seamless realistic hardscape. Great for mosaic art, too.
- As a natural stone, there may be some white quartz veining or brown surface discoloration. These beautiful variations add a natural uniqueness and interest to the stones. Use aquarium safe glue or epoxy to secure all your creations for the safety of your inhabitants. Thoroughly rinse all stones before placing in your habitat. Absolutely no coatings on this or any of our stone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: About how many stones in 2lbs? Would there be at least 50? Thanks.**
A: That would vary from one bag to another since all the stones are different shapes and sizes. In a bag of 1-3 inch stones there would typically be from 20 to 40 stones, but that could be more or less depending on the size of the stones. We try to make sure there is a good mix of the smaller and larger stones in each 2 lb. bag.

**Q: would these be okay in a betta aquarium? I don’t want my fish to cut his tail or harm himself in another way because of these.**
A: I just got these.  They are very smooth.  No rough edges.  I do not want any of my fish to get scraped/cut and I am really very happy, will be buying more.  Comes in different shapes and sizes.  I'd say a few were a little too small probably for an axolotl.  But the rest fine, and again very smooth.  Rinse them off in warm water to get all the dust off

**Q: Would this help ancor or hold down natual plants?**
A: I have a live plant tank, theses will not work to hold down plans, you can build up a section and back fill with substrate and gravel for a deeper root bed ( what I did ). Lead anchor tape works best for me.

**Q: Can these be used in a terrium with a bearded dragon?**
A: Absolutely!  We also sell larger sizes if your beardie is going to outgrow this size.  They will arrive slightly dusty, so be sure to rinse thoroughly before adding.  If you plan to stack them, make sure to glue them together (with safe glue) to keep your beardie safe from the stones toppling over.
