Hello All,

I have read a couple of posts about slate caves, I was wondering if anyone had any pics that I could look at.

Thanks A Lot

Hi Sammyboy,

I have boiled up the slate for 2 hours, drained the water and left them to dry in free air. I am hoping to start creating with them to tonight. My question is have I done enough to clean the slate off or should I be doing something else as well.

Thanks for the reply,

Richard

erm cant rember where but someone mentioned some slates have natural mineras in them which may be harmful for the fish think it was green slate that was dangerous

I think I will check that out, thanks for the heads up. Although I am pretty certain that the stuff i am using is Blue Slate.

Thanks,

Richard.
