Hydor KI1401 First Impressions

"The kiddos LOVE these!"

The price is a bit shocking at first, but the rocks are nice. She wanted to bring a jar of 100 marbles to school to celebrate the 100th day. Noticeable improvement in the clarity of the water. So, very pretty, glow nicely at night and add a pop of color during the day. They looked so good I bought more for other bathrooms. These marbles are as good as marbles can be. I like that you can be creative with these and build your own miniature structures.

Hydor KI1401 Final Thoughts

"Very cute!"

I couldn't find them in stores any longer so had to order them online. I didn't want round marbles in my tank, I had wanted the flat kind. I ordered these for my daughter's 100th school day project. I ordered two of these for my 75 gallon tank. I am using them in a shallow pan with water to let bees drink. They are nice rocks, nothing out of ordinary but nice rocks. I plopped one in with the shrimps and they were all over it like a tramp on chips.

"Highly recommend."

They were clear and seemed identical. Just an FYI, the white sea glass does not stay white, but still looks lovely! I just rinsed them well before putting in my new tank. I like that you can be creative with these and build your own miniature structures. They look nice mixed with light brown sand. Oh well, guess I should have ordered more! They look nice mixed with light brown sand.

Panacea Products 93432700280 Final Thoughts

"They work."

I love them and they are an asset to my collection of crafts! Nice very smooth smaller rocks good for a 10 gallon Betta tank. The sizes were about 3 inches diameter for most stones, and one small one thrown in. I use them in a vase to help with arrangements. Received marble very fast, great marbles. I bought these to put in a bird bath, so that honeybees would not drown. For a sample compare the advert photo and the darker photo from the reviews.

"They are glass."

No chips, cracks or obvious flaws precluding use. I read the other reviews about not 100 pieces. 500 marbles isn't as big a bag as you think, but they're all there. Also, they have been in my tank for about 5 weeks now. Used for centerpieces at my wedding. I used then in a vase with flowers. I use them for game pieces, they are perfect.

Decorative Accents Final Thoughts

"I purchased a 2."

Described as aquarium stones but I used them to decorate my plant pot. Light casts through them well and they are attractive. When the marbles arrived, the bag definitely was small. The bag they were in protected every single glass drop inside. Otherwise works and looks wonderful. There has been no adverse effects from the rocks. Really great color and looks nice in water.

"It was a big hit!"

I placed them in the sun and natural light and they glow bright and beautiful. So, very pretty, glow nicely at night and add a pop of color during the day. I bought these to use a Awesome Points in Cards Against Humanity. I used then in a vase with flowers. My goldfish began to eat the sandy gravel so I purchased this gravel. They're mixed with dark blue glass stones and it's very pretty. These would look pretty in a vase with some artificial flowers.

"Colors are as I expected."

Clear gems exactly what I wanted thank you. I love them and they are an asset to my collection of crafts! Only negative is the quantity for the price. I recieved 8 though two were smaller than the rest. I have purchased a few packs and every pack is different. The color was very true to color, also comes with a LOT of marbles too. Looks very nice is my little fish bowl.

5. Galapagos 05131 Sea Glass for Aquarium, 4 lb, Deep Sea Blue

Galapagos 759834051312 First Impressions

"Looks great."

To be honest I am debating ordering a third package. But I feel that's only if your planning to use them outside. I plopped one in with the shrimps and they were all over it like a tramp on chips. Out of the water they will be much lighter than their colors immersed. They look so beautiful in my 5 gallon tank. It would take ten bags or 1,000 marbles to fill the½ gallon jug¾ of the way. The marbles are perfect for floral arrangements in glass vases.

"Well worth the money."

Oh well, guess I should have ordered more! Large, white stones with a smooth polished surface. Very pretty stones for the aquarium. Excellent product and super fast shipping! To be honest I am debating ordering a third package. Natural-looking and don't seem to affect tank parameters. I just rinsed them well before putting in my new tank.

"And I'm glad I did!"

The bag they were in protected every single glass drop inside. These are lovely clear glass marbles and lots of them. Definitely not the case with these.

"I love these beads."

I am using them in a shallow pan with water to let bees drink. One thing I can say is 200 pieces is only good for a 5 gallon tank. Wish I had done this a long time ago. All arrived clean and in good condition. 500 marbles isn't as big a bag as you think, but they're all there. If you are ok with the price, they are really pretty. Reviews say not to clean them when they get dirty so I won't.

Nice and shiny giving that always wet look. So, very pretty, glow nicely at night and add a pop of color during the day. I ordered two packets and counted them one by one. Great quality, though smaller than I thought. I just rinsed them with hot, then cold water, and put them in the tank. These gems are so dainty and sparkly!

"Nice quality stones."

However, two packages have worked quite well. I only bought one bag at first and loved them so much that I bought two more. These marbles are as good as marbles can be. Its a small bag of rocks, cant really mess that order up. I ordered these for my daughter's 100th school day project. These would look pretty in a vase with some artificial flowers. Great for my betta because he cannot snag his fins on them.
