Hi All,
I make Fake AQUARIUM ROCKS, that are Very Safe, and Very Real Looking, and Great for Fish Habitats and Aquariums.

They are all Hand made and much Lighter than Natural Rocks..... Probably about 1/8 th of the Weight .

There are Small, Medium,+ Large ........ Corner Rocks ,1/2 Rocks, Ornamental Rocks, Some can be used as a HIDE. They can come in any Colour, mainly.... Grey or Reddish , or Lighter Sandstone ( when I say Grey etc. that colour may have 5 different colours thru out the Rock as in Nature )...they can also have Fake Algae or not.

Below are a couple of samples, Please take into account that the Rocks themselves look heaps better than what the images show.

Prices are from $20.00 If you are interested and want more info.........Please Email or Phone me and I will send you More Images, Sizes and Prices

I can Post to Anywhere in Australia, or they can be Picked up.


Also let me Know whether Reptile or Aquarium Rocks. ..... as I make Both.

Cheers Ron

Hi Lizhe1985,
They are made from a Special Resin........... It's quite Safe.

I have been making these Rocks both Aqua and Reptile for 7½ years

I have sold them to Shops for the Same amount of time with no problems.
I am now cutting back on the Shops , because I was spending to much time driving around to Shops etc, .... and no time to make the Rocks, they are all hand made by me and take time to make.

The Reptile Rocks are made from a Different Material, but are much Lighter and they are too Light for Aquariums ... because they Float

Below are a Couple more Pics.

Cheers....Ron

Hi Everybody,

Below is a Wall and Stump I recently made for a Guy,...... the Colour and Texture of the Wall was his Choice.

The Tree Stump is open between the Roots for the Fish to Swim through, and the Knot Hole is Open so a Power Head or Filter Return Pipe can Exhaust through the Stump

More Rock and Wall Images can be Seen HERE http://s63.photobucket.com/albums/h127/RonnyPonny/AQUARIUM%20ROCKS/

Please EMAIL ME for more Info.


Cheers..... Ron

Hi Tommo,
You ask "Have I sold many" ,
I have been making these Rocks etc, since 2002, They are all Hand Made by me and take plenty of time to make and Finish off, There are quite a few Forum Members that have them in their Tanks and are Happy with them ,


Cheers...Ron

The stump is very nice indeed :)
What are they made from , some sort of foam a fill product ? or expansion foam.
Are they epoxy coated ?
Is it paint that you use or dye ?

I am just asking out of interest as they are very well made :)

Cheers Ron

Hi Tommo,
They are made from different materials, different materials for different Jobs.

They are all Safe, which has been proven over the Years.

I have never had a Complaint regarding my Rocks. ( well one,.... a Reptile Dish was leaking , but when I got it back it had a Dent and a Crack in it from something being dropped into it. )


Cheers...Ron

Hi Tommo,
They are made from different materials, different materials for different Jobs.

What sort do you use ?

Ronny Ponny
Mon May 17, 2010, 08:16 AM
As I said Different materials for different Jobs, ........Polyesters, Urethanes, Resins, Epoxies.


I can't go through all the materials , IE: what type of Polyester is used for what job etc. there are Different types for different jobs.

And also you need experience to be able to use them as I do.

They are all safe , that is the main thing.

Cheers.

Hi Jannie,
Thanks for your suggestion, .... But I didn't use Photobucket , I have been trying to Upload an Attachment, JPG --- Limit 128 kbs,.... I even went down to 49kbs and still didn't upload.

So I don't know what the trick is , I have uploaded images in the past.

Maybe someone else can put me right .

That is a 4ft x 2ft Wall that has been chopped to shorter and lower , it has a Corner Rock added to it .

It was for a Snake enclosure but can be used for Aquariums.
