Rocks For A Cichlid Tank

[Iron Man]

Lava rock is just fine. If I can keep it in the tank with the panicky Silver Dollar, you can keep it just fine. I wouldn't keep it with clumsy Oscars or goldfish though.

Sandstone. Not recommended

Water-worn pebbles of varying sizes can give a very natural look to an aquarium. Sandstone is mostly safe to use for all tanks after the standard cleaning protocols; however it is a sedimentary rock made from small grains of quartz and feldspar.
Note; due to the feldspar, (which can contain potassium, sodium or calcium) it may be harmful.


guess i should of sed it wasnt reccomended then.
