    i just bought a few piece of rock which is stated as sponge rock over the LFS.
    is a white colour with pinkish look and had many holes and crevice, smooth.

    only now i m thinking whether this type of rock is suitable for planted tank.
    12g planted tank
    22g low ligh planted discus tank
    4g fish only marine tank
    never say never to start a new tank....if got enough money

    Are they reactive, as in causing pH and/or kH to raise/drop? Pour a bit of vinegar on it, if there's bubbling, don't use it.
