Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before adding Dragon Rock to your setup, you must thoroughly rinse each stone under warm water. Because these rocks are naturally eroded, they often contain dried clay or sediment within their deep crevices that can cloud your water if not removed. Use a soft-bristled brush to reach deep into the craters. When placing the stones in a glass aquarium, consider laying down a thin layer of protective foam or a substrate barrier to prevent the heavy, jagged edges from putting too much pressure on the bottom glass pane. These stones are suitable for all freshwater setups; however, they may slightly increase the hardness of the water in very soft-water systems, so monitor your tank parameters during the initial cycle.
