the all black kind that DEA has....
is it more ex or same price? the size is around the same rite?

**Simon** · 22nd Dec 2001, 08:37

compare to? if its lonestar then of coz its more ex, size is the same

**DEA** · 22nd Dec 2001, 13:02

same size
expensive, only slightly more
i got mine in a 28kg pack for slightly more than what lonestar costs
if you get the 5kg pack from the USA then it's gonna be a lot more expensive

but compared to a 22.7kg bag of lonestar?

**DEA** · 22nd Dec 2001, 15:22

i remember calculating how much it would be
and i remember it was more expensive than lonestar, but not by much
but i can't remember how much it was

**David** · 22nd Dec 2001, 15:40

yup simon its not that much more kg to kg......DEA was it happy that you got it from coz i can remember you made me help you carry the freaking thing up to your home[:0]

I bought my black gravel from PetMart at $10 per 10kg. Just a little more than Lone Star, but its better and nicer to the eyes. All fish and plants stand out amongst the black background...

note tho, uww's black gravel is different from mine
his reminds me of slate more than gravel

**Tristan** · 22nd Dec 2001, 23:41

slate? like.. not rounded or what? or the colour?

**DEA** · 23rd Dec 2001, 00:16

not rounded
looks more like broken stone than sand

**Tristan** · 23rd Dec 2001, 00:49

I see... so the edges are sharp or what? hmmmm... lucky you didn't get that or you'll have a tank filled with unhappy corys....
the rounded one also can get from petmart?

**UnderWaterWorld** · 23rd Dec 2001, 13:47

DEA: That's slate? So far so good... no unhappy Corys... still doing well....

**Simon** · 23rd Dec 2001, 14:32

slate? it isnt round but flat? have sharp edges? definte not cory friendly

**DEA** · 23rd Dec 2001, 15:05

the edges look sharp to me
anyway
people have been ripping the sharp gravel cory unfriendly theory apart since a long time ago
i'd surmise that tank conditions are more important than the condition of the gravel
some guy in the US once commented that he caught cories in a river where the gravel cut him
*shrug*
