"Size of this rocks right! It is easy to maintain these rocks. You get quite a bit of rock in this bag and there was a mix of large and small pieces, though some of the large pieces are very large. This is probably not the best for a small to medium sized tank unless you are willing to break up some ..."

"The first bag contained 20-25 small stones, with only 2 stones larger than 5 inches and of which they were torn into many pieces, sending them back"

Bottom Line

If you are on a limited budget and looking for rocks to use in your aquarium, this could be an option for you. However, if you value quality stratification and larger pieces, it might be worth seeking other options.
