I want to build my own stone caves and stacks of rock using various sized pieces of flat slate. Our specialty LFS here in town carries it, but they want outrageous amounts of $$ for it (like $3 a pound or something rediculous like that). Can I not get this same slate at Lowe's/Home Depot/Menards or someplace similar for much less than that? I mostly don't care about size or shape as it can be broken into pieces that I want. I just want some gray/brown and maybe some red slate to stack into whatever configuration strikes my mood and keeps my fish happy.
