Habitat - Indoor :: river rocks

[myrtle1123]

I see all these beautiful set ups on this site and they have nice river rocks! So i decided to go to Michaels craft store and get some bit river rocks. They were " Polished River Rocks" and at the last moment I saw on the package not for use in aquariums. They are big enough so she can not swallow. So I am wondering where to get some river rocks!

A garden center, or a landscape supply store. You are going to have to rinse then off, because they are going to appear white, and will be VERY dusty. After you rinse them off, there true colors will show up. Good luck!

Thanks! I will try that then the new aquarium will be ready and I will be sure to put some pics here!

I've bought river rocks at Michaels. Some bags do say they're aquarium safe. If you don't need a lot of them, Walmart sells bags of them as well.

You could even go to the local river and pick out a few rocks and soak em in vinegar over night than in fresh water for another night to clean em out.

Or clean them and boil them to get rid of any nasty stuff.
