This listing is especially for those who are outfitting a smaller landscape. It includes 8 red / reddish-brown lava rocks, ranging from roughly 1"-1½" on their longest axis and illustrating different types of pockmarking along their surfaces. Also known as "scoria" or "cinder", they were hand-picked directly from the Springerville Volcanic Field, near the White Mountains of east-central Arizona.

Those pockmarks are scoria's most recognizable feature. When they were expelled from volcanoes that were active here over a half million years ago, hot gases were captured within the molten lava and trapped as it cooled, leaving thousands of tiny "pores" within the rock itself.

They would be ideal for the following uses:

• In aquariums. Set them out a bit from a corner to create a safe space for smaller fish, or combine them with other rocks to create an underground scene. Scoria lava rocks are extremely lightweight and reduce the risk of damaging your tanks. They offer additional benefits ensuring the health of your aquarium, too. IMPORTANT: These rocks are shipped in a natural state and need to be prepared before introducing them into your aquarium.

• Lava rocks can create a beautiful setting in your terrarium or bonsai tree arrangements. Juxtapose these rocks to larger plants to create a visual offset, for example. (Please see our other listings if you’re looking for something in a different size or shape. Each listing is unique.)

• Lava rocks are an ideal base for planting small succulents. Its pores offer natural benefits that help certain varieties of succulents to even thrive compared to other planting methods. They allow air to pass to their shallow roots, while retaining moisture as water easily drains. Their native roughness offers a place for roots to grab hold and take root, too.

• Note: The Woody miniature is shown for size-illustration purposes only. Jessie, Buzz, and Bullseye aren't interested in another search party!
