Where To Find Rocks

[bordercollie05]

I'm from central IL, USA and there isn't much natural water around here other than creeks which I'm sure contain runoff from the farmland surrounding them, there's not really anything but flat farmland here actually. I'd really like to have some larger roundish rocks for my planted tank but can't find any "wild" ones, any suggestions on where to get them?

Thanks Laura

Im sure some landscaping, or gardening places around should have some. Just be sure to test them with vinegar before you put them in your tank, if they fizz at all when you put it on them dont put them in your tank, they'll changer your ph

Hmm, that might be a place to try...I've looked at all the hardware stores (lowe's, menards, etc) and they don't have much aside from limestone. I'll look up a gardening place Thanks for the idea.
