Woah! Don't take them from the beach. For one, it's illegal. For two, there are WAAAAY too many contaminants on the local beaches. Lots of people use the Tufa/Lace Rock from landscaping stores with success. I'm paranoid that it will be contaminated with chemicals or such as those sorts of stores have all kinds of stuff in them.
