frag tiles?
 

I've seen more and more frags on tiles and was wondering where to buy these tiles.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure they are just the tile sheets that come all together from home depot and then the connecting fibers are cut to free up the tiles. Ya know the ttpe that are pre assembled for back splashesa and the like. Many sizes and colors to choose from

that's what I was thinking but was worried about getting the wrong ones and leaching contaminants.

Yah I would say you would want to stick with undyed natural stone options for sure. Then again they may have some all glass options as well. But stone would be my first pick esdpecially since it would probably come alive and coraline up eventually

Its apparently called travertine tiles. look like natural stone tiles. I think I'm going to let them soak for a couple weeks in my toilet to soak the contaminates off.

Anywhere that sells tiles for your house. They are used for back splashes and shower floors and come in pre-assmbled sheets, just pull them off the netting. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are reef-safe. I wouldn't use any natural rocks though (slate, marble, granite, travertine, etc) because they could have metals in them.

I have a ton of leftover scrap natural travertine left over from renos if anyone wants some. It's very porous and pure limestone, I don't believe it would have any metal in it. They are not filled with epoxy or grout like typical travertine either.

Why? It might be easier for a seller, but usually sucks for the buyer.

They are unappealing to the eye, and personally I avoid them like the plague.

Why not just use rubble?

Just curious. I know everyone has views and personal likes. So again, curious.

I have used lots of large 4" tavertine in my tank...no problem. It is limestone (calcium carbonate) but its purity might be in question. Just try to buy the whitest tavertine you can find because colour is indication of purity.

As for the small 1"x1" tavertine or other tiles...they come with glue on the back that is not easily removed....I would be more worried about that glue. At least that is why I havent tried them.

Not selling any frags actually just going to build a frag rack with them. That being said I like tiles better than plugs or rubble. I usually remove them from what ever its growing on and attach it to my live rock direct. So the tile is easiest to remove from.
