Black Slate is a metamorphic sedimentary rock that is derived from shale and is very popular in aquarium decoration. This rock is typically flat and it is very useful for aquascaping caves and creating surfaces that create refuge and spawning sites for aquatic animals. It is also an excellent surface for mounting/rooting many aquatic plants such as Anubias, Java Fern, and most mosses. Black Slate is also considered nearly or completely waterproof and will not degrade underwater.

We are offering high-quality, attractive pieces of this classic aquarium rock in many assortments. Most of our pieces are already mostly blunt on the edges and will require little to no further sanding or alteration in order to avoid scratching or harming aquarium animals.

We package all of our exotic stones with ample padding/protection during shipment. However, we recommend rinsing any residual dust with non-chlorinated water before aquarium usage.

Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.

Shipping Rate

Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
