Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these natural quartz crystals?
These are real quartz stones that have been heat-treated to create the 'crackle' effect and dyed to achieve their vibrant colors.
How many stones are in a 1kg pack?
The pack contains approximately 70 pieces, though the exact count may vary slightly based on the size of individual stones.
Can I use these for a fish tank?
While often used for decoration, check your specific fish requirements. It is always recommended to wash them thoroughly before introduction.
Are the colors permanent?
The dyes are stable for decorative use, but they may fade if exposed to harsh chemicals, solvents, or excessive direct sunlight.
Are these stones safe for children?
They are safe for handling, but they are a choking hazard for young children. Keep out of reach of infants and small toddlers.
Troubleshooting
Stones look dull or dusty
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and mild soap, then buff gently with a microfiber cloth.
Color appears to fade
Avoid prolonged direct exposure to intense UV sunlight, which can cause dyed surfaces to lose saturation over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Crackle Quartz looking its best, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Before using in a vase or display, rinse the stones under cool water to remove any residual dust from the tumbling process. Pat dry with a soft cloth to restore the shine.
- Compatibility: These stones are generally safe for dry displays. If using in aquariums, ensure your water chemistry is stable, though it is recommended to monitor pH levels, as some dyed stones may react over very long periods in standing water.
- Placement: Avoid placing these stones in high-heat areas, such as directly on a stove or next to a high-wattage heat lamp, as extreme temperature changes may affect the structural integrity of the heat-treated fissures.
