I remember ikea used to have them, didn't specify it's for fish tank or for reptitle tank, but
should be fine. It was like $5.99 a bag or something.

value village or those thrifty stores in Steveston should have it too, but it takes time to find.

have you checked pet cetera???


I think i know something that's really similar to those pebbles.. Those honger hobbies/toys shops in metro, cystal mall, richmond have cute little rocks.... but very very expensive cause those stores are ownd by asian. Hence, you might be able to save 50cents if you really try to bargain

bcaquaria.com forums they know everything. or post in the pet forum.

you gotta watch out, you cant just put any normal "rocks" in there, some rocks are covered with stuff that could poison the fish. marbles.. no idea. should be just glass but who knows

you dont want that crap in your fish tank bro. it's a perfect breeding ground for bad bacteria because uneaten food and particles get stuck in there causing a spike in nitrate and ammonia which is deadly for your fish, not to mention you'll have a terrible odor coming from your fishtank. either go barebottom or get proper aquarium gravel for your fish tank.

once they get dirty and start to grow algae you'll probably regret buying them for decoration. I suggest gravel.

Damn, seems so negative to own these... lol
But is it really that bad? I just have a tiny fish tank... or actually, it's a fishbowl.
I should of said fishbowl in my thread title.
