Review on 1/2-Inch Polygon Fire Glass For Fireplace, Fire Pit & Landscaping - 10 Pounds High Luster Crystal Ice by Jared Allred

Aquarium use: here's what I know

I wanted a glass substrate for my aquarium. Something large enough my goldfish wouldnt eat them and smooth enough for my mollies(and any other fancy fishies we get later) fins, enter ploygon shaped fire glass. Online the reflective looks better, but I was concerned about chipping paint in my fishes gills so I chose the grey nonreflective glass. Right now in my 58 gallon tank I'm watching my fish and water closely. We just moved so theres no telling if these could cause a chemical issue for the next 4-6 weeks because with moving I'm concerned about my bacteria cycle being enough. Obviusly I take their health seriously so I made sure to rinse and scrub these thoroughly. I saw no signs of paint chipping they appear to be dyed solid which I found comforting so I put them in my tank. They look amazing, but I underestimated my tank size and need more. Next month I'll be ordering more after I've had a chance to really watch my water. If my water parameters stay good I may have found my new favorite substrate for all my tanks. They glitter and shine light through them and just look incredible underwater. Unfortunately my good camera is still packed so I cant show you yet, but I'll find it by my next order and update this

Pros
  • Much nicer than I expected. They updated our gas logs without looking ultra modern.
Cons
  • The high shine of the crystal ice can be overwhelming and may distract from the beauty of the natural flames in your fireplace or fire pit
