        The rock is in bins under some trees. They have "Driftwood" on a pathway in front of the bins. Its on the right of the pathway leading to the back of the lot.

            They have plenty. The rock you see in my picture is all going in a 135.

              Do they have tall peices 18 - 24 inches? That's what I had a hard time finding.

                That had a few. The two large pieces i got are about 13-14" tall. They had some that were taller but the proportions of the rocks weren't to my liking.

                    The rock in the bottom left of my picture is about the size of a basketball. Personally I wouldnt go much larger than that as it is going that take up a lot of space and it's a lot of weight. Tank will be filthy and cloudy tonight but I will take picture once I rescape. they will be bad though.

                          Clean bro.

                          Yeah man no problem. never buy from an aquarium store. search out rock yards and landscaping yards. Rock is stupid cheap, except for a few.

                            How do I make sure that the rocks are safe? I heard something about vinegar, but I know I'm getting the ones you got so I shouldn't worry about it

                              Man there are a multitude of things you can do, but since i knew I had time I did the following:

                              1. Washed rock with a garden hose.
                              2. Scrubbed rocks with a stiff bristle brush to ensure I removed everything from the surface I could.
                              3. Bleached (4 cups) for 24hrs in a large plastic tote from walmart (Ice chest work great as well)
                              4. Removed rocks and washed with the garden hose again.
                              5. Soaked in clean water with dechlorinator for another 24 hrs.

                              I do this for almost any rock I get including holey rock, limestone, river rock, etc.

                                So all in all this cleaning process took you about 2-3 days. I can do that. Lol I just wanted to make sure that the rocks you got are safe for the aquarium.
