how 'bout these?

**oldpunk78** · 12-21-2008, 03:10 PM

i found these rocks yesterday and thought that they could make a pretty nice scape. my question is: are they too small for a 29g?

that nifty spiderman ruler is 6".

a little closer. i can find bigger ones, they are really heavy though...

Depends upon what you are trying to accomplish....the look your are going for. But from what I can tell of the scale--I don't think they are too small.

i was thinking may be one big one... (off to the rock pile to look for something "bigger").

side of my house^

here's a bigger one^

^haha, after looking at it, that looks like a chichlid(i'll admit it, i can't spell) habitat. i think i like it better w/out the big one. any more thoughts?

i actually kind of like the big one. if your shooting for an iwagumi, then it might be a little bit big, but without the biggest rock, it could look great.
BUT if you want a regular foresty-jungly look the big rock would look awesome with the smaller ones. i might have to start looking for some like that, theyre pretty cool.

Those would probably look wonderful in a planted tank. Although it depends.
