Best cichlid rocks

[Heavy]

The slate looks good, but I love the holey rock. I have to labs that can compete with any pair of rabbits out there, and the only reason a couple from each batch survive is the rock.

How would I go about ordering those rocks? Online? I've been to a couple of my local pet stores an they don't have those. I can find the slate at Home Depot

I have seen a bunch of holey rock on eBay. I live here in Texas, so it's not a problem getting it here.

CHECK THE BOTTOM! I was in such a rush (it's 16 degrees here) that I didn't check so now ill be doing alot of chiseling, sanding and boiling. Save yourself the worry about the glue(very small amount and chisel's right off but still)

What r you chiseling off?

I went to lowes today and they didn't have any slate. Bumber. Apparently it's seasonal. But it's ok because I found this web site that sell some really nice branchy drift wood.

Did you look in their outside section for the slate? Because you will actually find it in perfect squares in the tile section! That's where I stumbled upon it when I was looking to scape my tank. There usually wrapped in plastic straps and cardboard in a pack. Hope this helps ya!
