RE: Lava Rock
Hi Jacqueline,
Lava rock comes in red and black. It comes in sizes from about 1/4 inch
pebbles to rocks several feet across. It is very porous and bacteria culture
can live in and on it.
Peace,
~RJ~

Hi,
It's me, the newbie again.. I was just wondering what lava rock
was like and what advantages it has? I currently use regular gravel in my
aquariums.. Also, does it come in colors other than red?
