I would like an opinion, since the use of aquarium gravel came up.I paid $12. for a 25 pound bag not sure if i'm repeating that or not but anyway i was looking on Lowes web site and found a product that was marked pea gravel.I'm not sure exactly what size rock other consider to be pea gravel and giving me the size or dimensions in inches etc... isn't a big help to me.Rock is always different sizes in a bag.

As for the opinion i wanted here's a link to a product that to me LOOKS to be about the same size or close to the size of aquarium rock.I always worry about using this product with the fish products at walmart because they are polished & seem to have something on them to make them shiny & smooth.Would this make them get hotter than other products.
Here's the [url=linkhttp://www.lowes.com/pd_92130-76450-GP05RC_4294707953__?productId=3471471&Ns=p_product_avg_rating|1&pl=1¤tURL=%3FNs%3Dp_product_avg_rating%7C1&facetInfo=]linkhttp://www.lowes.com/pd_92...[/url]

Here's the rock i have used is it what is considered pea gravel?

I'm not sure the first link will work so you can go to this one or just go to lowes web site and look at a picture blown up so you can see the size of the rock. It's Rock city Pea gravel it's in gold & black packaging.I was shocked at the price because it looks as small as what i paid $12. for.

That link seems to have worked better, the other link is just where i clicked on the picture of the bag of pea gravel.
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
