mynameisnobody Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 @GCH I could be totally wrong, but it looks like either weathered seiryu stone or elephant skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I looked it up . Feel bad for the Germans now when they send me a link to https://www.amazon.com/Premium-Aquascaping-Freshwater-Planted-Aquariums/dp/B0BKH1BD4N/ref=sr_1_4?gclid=CjwKCAiAr4GgBhBFEiwAgwORrZSDWB8KDfJl_0E1TIlZazkcM6FAY_33BcUPdeeucG7v9U60erZVMRoCqlsQAvD_BwE&hvadid=409971219027&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9002030&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=9273395285820356085&hvtargid=kwd-27838809728&hydadcr=16200_11424688&keywords=seiryu+stone&qid=1677798642&sr=8-4 Edited March 2, 2023 by GCH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the word? I can translate. Looks like mountain stone to me. This is why we have so many words for "sieryu" in different cultures. LOL. Might also be termed Rhino Stone.

If you go to the ADA website itself you get a few listed there. I have an aquascaping magazine that has 5-6 stones but not much of the newer ones. This is what I saw listed as rhino stone: Mountain stone: Wolf stone: Elephant Skin stone: Keep in mind, it's not wet. Seiryu (grey) Seiryu (black) literally just means less white marbling. Different store.... Frodo stone: Grey mountain / manten stone: Anyways, I understand the confusion. Hopefully you're able to find what you're looking for!

Lennie Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Seiryu stones may affect water parameters a lot, something to keep in mind. Not everything may enjoy potentially high kh and somehow gh setup. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking to set up a 20L and want to take my time and set it up with allot more consideration as to what I want it to be . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renee W. Martin Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 (edited) Looks like you found some interesting rocks! To find them, try using an online translator to translate the site's content from German into your language. This will help you understand where you can purchase this type of stone. At the same time, learning a foreign language like German can also be useful for exploring the topic of the role of education in creating a more ethical fashion industry, I read about this in the article https://fashion-era.com/fashion-trends/ethical-fashion-guide, expanding opportunities to interact with global fashion markets and providing access to information about sustainable and ethical brands.
