Rocks In Your Tanks......

[ben3486]

I am going to be trying to get hold of some ocean rock this week to finish off my aquascaping, but i wondered if you guys put any thing under your rocks to protect the bottom of the tank from being scratched, or worse.....cracking!


ohhhh...... amd is £3 per Kg a good price for ocean rock?

I would advise using egg crate if you inenf to add a lot of rockwork, saying that I have never used it, definately adding it if/when I get a new tank
Have a look at
warehouse aquatics
aqua essentials (loads of choice on this one)
the green machine
the planted box
there are loads more but those are the first ones that spring to mind, hope this helps

That`s the same guy I bought my ocean rock from. Good mix of sizes and quality of rock

going to order the 12kg sack works out at £2.10 ish per Kg inc the delivery
