rocks

i'm setting up a new tank, and wanted to go with larger black stones as a substrate, so i decided to buy a bag of these at home depot. as i opened the bag i noticed that they felt kind of sticky and oily. i tried rinsing some pretty thoroughly, but it made no difference. now i'm told that my...

Anyone keep these? I ended up with one and looking to add more. As they are beautiful. Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

I did a big waterchange on my 55 this evening and had the opportunity to pull out my first holding chipokae. I got these in the Dave's fish order at AquaMania 2. Although they have grown quite a bit, it hasn't been that long since AM. They are known for spawning young...and these held true to...

I have had a group of these for a while (bought from a past Daves Fish group order). I asked Dave for a recommendation for my 4 ft Mbuna tank.....something that would fit nicely in with my current stocking, would look good, and would be a little different than the usual Yellow Labs and Red...

Today at home depot I picked up slate, river rocks, and gravel. I already hozed everything off but other than that, do I need to do anything else.

I have some lively lace rock I'd like to sell but it is covered in green and black brush algae. I need a way to kill it off without damaging the re-sell value of the rock. I'm decommissioning my tanks, selling everything and I'd like to be able to sell the rock too. I have tanks on hand to do it...

I've noticed at the bottom of my tank, there is waste building up around my rocks on top of the sand. Does anyone recommend to take the rocks out every so often to clean the sand bed? How often if so? There is two mounds of rocks so I could do one side and then 2-3 weeks later do the other side..

Now i have been back and forth with making my own 3D BackGround and glueing some slate rocks and making them like a 3D backGround. Has anyone glued rocks together to make a whole setup if so can you share your experience or any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated i want to figure...

I had a great morning at Irwin, picking through their "loose pallet" fieldstone (or as I call them...floorsweepings). I've got some redecorating to do today! :lol:

Hey anyone know a good place to pick up some new rock to fill out our new tank? We are domg holey rock for the tropheus, but want something else for the Munda tank. Ideally something like a white or light color limestone/sandstone? Our local garden supply place tends not to have a huge...

So wendyfish and I are getting ready to set-up a new tank...We have found some pretty good looking rock we want to use but they are pretty large. Mostly this is fine, but for aquascaping and cave making it would be nice to have a selection of smaller pieces. So does anyone have any...

I'm going to rearrange the rocks in my tank. I have overheard people talk about the bottoms of tanks cracking because of the weight of the rocks. :excl: I have never heard of it happening but that doesn't mean it can't and I want to protect my investment and the place I'm renting. What are...

Does anyone know of a good place to go to get holey rock or any other types of rocks that are good for tanks? I'm trying to limit my spending. Thanks.

Has anyone purchased these ceramic cichlid rocks from Ken's fish? If so what are your thoughts? If the look real, weigh much less than real rock, hollow inside=more places for the fish to hide...this is a possiblity. The setup shown in the video is the 15 piece set for $55.95...

Rescaping my 90g tank and looking for some nice (and safe) rocks to use...
