Galapagos Aquarium Sea Glass (Pacific Mix) offers a sophisticated, premium alternative crafted from carefully tumbled glass. Each 1- to 2-inch piece is washed and polished to eliminate sharp points and abrasive textures, protecting delicate fins, soft barbels, and sensitive bellies. Chemically inert and richly colored in coastal tones, it catches natural and LED terrarium lighting to create an undersea shimmer without disrupting your water parameters.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSmooth, Fin-Safe Contours:\u003c\/b\u003e Each piece is carefully washed and tumbled to eliminate micro-dust and sharp margins, making it safe for delicate fish fins and bottom-dwelling aquatic life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e100% Chemically Inert:\u003c\/b\u003e Formulated to never leach minerals, elevate hardness, or fluctuate ambient pH levels, ensuring stable water chemistry across freshwater and saltwater environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSubstantial 1- to 2-Inch Sizing:\u003c\/b\u003e Large, weighted piece dimensions provide a sturdy anchor for driftwood, rock hardscapes, and aquatic plant roots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDual-Environment Versatility:\u003c\/b\u003e Fully compatible with freshwater aquariums, marine reef setups, paludarium water sections, and moisture-rich terrarium display areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,5,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePre-Washed Purity:\u003c\/b\u003e Rinsed and cleaned to remove fine glass powder and residues, streamlining setup and keeping your tank water crystal clear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHusbandry\/Care Specs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePackage Specifications:\u003c\/b\u003e Contains 4 lbs (1.81 kg) of smoothed sea glass; individual pieces range from approximately 1 to 2 inches in size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eInitial Setup Protocol:\u003c\/b\u003e Rinse thoroughly with clean, dechlorinated water before adding to the aquarium to remove any transit dust.
