NATURAL SLATE - 100% real slate stone will add beauty and realism to your creations. Because these are natural stones, each bag is a mix of stones from 1/4 to 1/2 inches. Product of the USA. PERFECT for creating walkways, benches, steps, archways, caverns, ground cover and much, much more in miniature or fairy gardens, model railways and doll houses. EXCELLENT for Aquascaping aquariums, terrariums, vivariums and other pet enclosures. These stones naturally hold heat for reptiles or other heat loving pets. They can be glued together with aquarium safe glue to create caves, cliffs and mountain ranges for fish and plants. BEAUTIFUL for bonsai. Use in home decor in bowls and vases and as ground cover for indoor plants. Perfect size and shape for rock painting. Gives wargaming miniatures natural and realistic scenery. COLOR - These stones are a natural grey slate that are darker when wet or can be more permanently darkened by using a sealant or clear finish (do not use sealant or finish in pet enclosures or aquariums). Because this is a natural stone, slight color variations including some white quartz or brown stones may be mixed in.

stones as promised

small slate stones, what do you expect? Used to construct a ramp for the Turtle Dock. There was still a bunch left and I started building my own walkways in the Christmas Village (they work well for that too).

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • exchange possible

Stone is great - needs washing - expensive for the volume

Was a LOT to remove gray dust when used in an aquarium. It's not difficult, but you have to keep rinsing the water to make the water clear. The price for so many stones is driving me insane. I bought several packs to get the amount I needed.

Pros
  • Great range
Cons
  • #

overpriced. best aquarium decor

This is a slate stone. The price is way too high. I could buy four times the price at a local quarry or reservoir and smash the tablet to get the same product in a bag. I gave an extra star for convenience, but buyers felt immediate regret when I received the bag of stones. Silly me!

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Discontinued

Fighting Voles – Fish & Aquatic Pets

This is probably the only review I've ever had - I use this product in the holes of some plants like bulbs and liatris to prevent voles from eating the bulbs in the fall and winter. While it seems to be working. Voles don't like digging into sharp material, so I surround the bulbs with it and layer it on top.

Pros
  • Feel Good
Cons
  • Repair

I love this product when I use it for fairy house fireplace and planter.

I plan to use Crete's quick cement over a form (for a fancy chimney) covered in crumpled foil. These flat pieces have different shapes but the same thickness, ideal for setting in cement and working around curves. It's about 6" tall and 3" wide so I was worried it might not be enough, I'm sure I'll also have enough to make a planter twice the size of an egg carton section . looking forward to the game!

Pros
  • Good construction
Cons
  • Upgrade available

They're almost perfect, look fantastic and are incredibly affordable

While it may seem ridiculous to pay someone ten dollars for a small bag of much smaller stones, I think it's a lot. . Especially for me, one person (or people) gathered up a pile of slate, sorted everything by size into separate pieces, packed the sorted rocks into handy 5x7 resealable bags, and advertised this on Revain. com and here we are. There are many uses, but I use these tiny pieces of slate all the time, mainly to represent the 1:28 scale rocks in the "territory" that I create on 30mm…

Pros
  • Delightful
Cons
  • Something's Wrong
