  • Slate?

    Okay... I have seen pictures and several people have referred to the beige things they use in stacking and in making caves as "slate".  I have some in a setup I purchase and CBerry saw it today.  Where do you buy it?  I want to build more hiding spots for my cichlid mixed bunch or create a cool atmosphere in my incoming 55 or postentially the 75.

    Also, does anyone have any working approx. 22.5 inch lights?  I need to light fixtures for 2 of my tanks (20 reg).  Pm me with asking price :-)

      I get mine from a local place. 3 out of the 4 times i have gone to buy some rocks they gave it to me for free becuase i was takin mainly smaller leftovers. Fine with me since it fills my tank up nicely.

            You can buy slate squares at HomeDepot and such and just break it to scape your tank.
