    Rockery For Tank

    Thanks Loops, Yeah I have just read about the vinegar on this forum. I was ideally looking to buy a big bag of rocks so I may not be able to do this now so I can test it. If the rock does not fizz then it will be absolutely safe to use then? Thanks for welcome and your reply.
