Very pleased with this purchase! Rocks do come a little dusty but who cares they washed easy. I got 10lb (advertised 9lb) We got 5 big stones and two smaller 2in stones, the biggest one is almost 9inches and the next one 7inches and then smaller in size from there. I’ll buy again from this seller!!!

i didn’t weigh the rocks, but i got a LOT of stone for minimal money. i built a good size arch for my 10 gallon, and i still have the three largest pieces to use for my next project. they’re BIG too. you do need to scrub and soak and scrub and soak and scrub and soak. i didn’t realize that they weren’t fully clean, so gluing them was a bit of a nightmare but that’s on me. dragon stone is the ultimate dirt trap. regardless, for the price i paid i can’t complain at all. i’m actually thrilled. 10/10!

I opened the inner box containing the stone outside. Yes, a fair amount of dust, and 2 pieces were broken, but still useable. This is a good amount of dragon stone. Enough to create a nice display in 2 or 3 10 gal tanks, depending how much density you desire.I grabbed a plastic colander that I use for cleaning items, and put 3 larger stones at a time into it. I hit them with a jet stream from my hose to get the initial dirt off, then switched to hand holding them with a fan stream for final rinse. Worked like a charm, done in 10 minutes. If you don't have a garden hose, a faucet sprayer will work too. Just be sure to put a large rinse container in your sink, and let the coarser dirt settle b4 you pour any down the drain. You don't want that stuff settling in your sink traps. Better yet, empty the container outside.I played with the pieces on an outdoor table for an initial setup. Then transferred to my 2nd shrimp tank. Looks outstanding, and no cloudiness to my water. Ran a water test next day, and no changes. All good, awaiting shrimp arrival. Plants really set off these stones, along with black substrate, and a couple of 6" cholla logs. I will definitely buy again if I need more. I have enough left to do a 3rd tank. My 1st has large white quartz rocks provided by Mother Nature. It is luck of the draw. All of my pieces were 6 to 8 inches in size, with the exception of the 2 that were broken. Those were still very attractive as smaller accent pieces to the main display.

Purchased these for our aquarium. Rocks almost appeared to be pulled from the ground and packaged. I have never received such a dirty product. We rinsed thoroughly and placed in our aquarium prior to adding fished - roughly 5 days prior to introduction of fish.Ended up having to do a full water change after noticing an oil film, two fished died within 24 hours.Blasted these rocks with a shower head and they crumbled and dirt still poured from every crevice imaginable.After full tank cleaning and change, water has stayed clear, surviving fish is healthy and happy.Wouldn’t purchase again, but they are pretty once thoroughly cleaned

Many pieces for a good price, they come quite dirty, wash them well with a brush and soak them in water, changing it constantly for 2 days or until the water comes out clear and that's it, beautiful.

I ordered the 9lb dragonstone rocks and got at least twice as much as I needed for my 6 gallon cube. They're aesthetically pleasing and weren't really that difficult to rinse off with warm water. Great value, too, at about 2.61/lb (my LFS was selling for 3.99/lb). Mine came with one nice big piece (for the 6gal at least), several nice medium pieces and many smaller accent pieces. Altogether, very happy with these and if I ever do anything bigger I will certainly buy again!

As others have stated in their reviews, The product when it arrives is very dirty. But I thought that rocks come from the ground and are naturally dirty. I washed the rocks off and then weighted each one and added up the total weight. After weighting each washed rock, the total was 9.09 lbs. I was pleased with the assortment but as others have stated there is a lot of very small stones. I collected all the smaller stones as seen in picture #1 which totaled 16 pcs. and the combine weight was 12 Oz. I then took the largest stone which weighted in at 75.8 Oz. or 4.737 lbs. There were 7 more that ranged between 11 to 4 Oz. each. All the rocks were nice natural color and was a good size variety. I was thinking that anyone who will sell you rocks for aqua scaping is either going to clean each rock for you and charge you top dollar for the time invested in doing so OR they will keep their cost low and ship the rock to you as they get them and hope that the weight of the dirt on the rock is something that you do not pay for. Overall, the total weight after all the washing (there was A LOT of washing) was exactly the weight as described and sold! Nice assortment and very accurate weighing. I purchased this for a 25 Gal. aquarium and along with some spider wood was more than enough for the job with rocks left over. The smaller stones are a perfect size to attach live plants if you're going that route. Overall Nice rocks, good variety, and good cost. Very pleased with the order!
