i was wondering if a trip to firm that fit swimming pools may be worth it, to perhaps buy some from them.

 

[invader]

Thought I'd update everyone and say that I changed my 125 over to black colorquartz S grade. After it was all over, I looked like a coal miner, but hey, it was worth it! I'll update with pics tomorrow.

Awesome! How much did it cost in the end?

I'm turning my 55gal into a high tech planted tank. Cost wise I don't have a problem buying the pressurized CO2 and the lighting upgrade. Its all the eco-complete I'm going to be buying, I need enough to make a 2" layer in a 55gal. So I'm guessing around 5-6 bags which is going to run around $120-140 . Expensive rocks...

 

[invader]

Almost $50 for 100lbs (2 bags). It made about 2 inches of sand in my 125gl. Much better than $150 of eco-complete!

This stuff is awesome, but if you decide to get it, wash it well and I suggest wearing gloves. I looked like a coal miner after I was done!

Here is a link to a thread with pictures... http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showto...p;#entry2012303

They're not the best, but it shows how nice it looks. It's so smooth to the touch and just looking at it. I am very pleased!
