        A:  I use these as a soil amendment and as mulch around moisture sensitive plants like agave. They work great. As far as I can tell these are just pure fine ground lava rock.

              Answer This Question

              A:  I use the red lava rock in multiple freshwater tanks for shrimp breeding as decor only not as a substrate., I keep one community tank that has corys whose barbs and mouth that might get injured by how rough the lava is.

              by|Apr 29, 2022

                A:  Hello Bridgett, you are able to use this product in a fish tank. Lava rock works much like gravel in fish tanks as a healthy home for beneficial bacteria. Lava rock can help provide a welcoming environment for the healthy de-nitrifying bacteria colonies that remove nitrates from your water. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact us.

                        A:  I wouldn’t suggest using them in a wood burning fire pit as the ashes would quickly cover them and create quite a mess.
