Natural patterns differ between pieces, so the balance of color and the direction of markings will vary within each bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bullet-list\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bl-item\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose the face, profile and orientation.\u003c\/strong\u003e The proportion and arrangement of the light and dark areas can differ between pieces. Compare the faces before positioning the stone and choose the orientation that best suits the viewing angle. The trade name describes its appearance; it does not establish the mineral composition of every batch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"section-label\"\u003eWater Chemistry\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch2\u003eParameter impact and livestock suitability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck water chemistry after adding natural stone.

A stable reading in one aquarium does not guarantee the same result in another: source water, the quantity of stone and tank volume all matter.

Do not use soap or household cleaners, and do not boil rocks. Inspect edges before placement.

Your selection is the total rock weight, not a guaranteed number of stones or the weight of each piece. Individual pieces range up to approximately 8 inches, depending on the selected bag weight and available stock. Sizes, shapes, colors and markings vary naturally; an 8-inch piece is not guaranteed with every order. A 1 lb order may consist of smaller accents and should not be ordered with the expectation of a large centerpiece. Allow for partially buried bases when planning how much visible rock your layout needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tip-box\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"tip-label\"\u003eSpecific Piece Requests\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhotos show examples of the rock type, not the exact pieces or quantity you will receive.
