CJGQ Pebbles for Plants 18 lb Natural River Rocks 1–1.5" Decorative Garden & Aquarium Stones, Polished Non-Toxic

These polished, naturally tumbled river rocks bring a low-maintenance, mineral-based accent to outdoor and indoor projects. Unlike organic mulches, they don’t decompose, so they retain appearance and function season after season. The medium 1–1.5" size balances visibility with practicality: large enough to show texture, small enough to work as topdressing, vase filler, or pond accent.

How will these pebbles improve my garden or planter?

Using CJGQ river rocks as a surface layer gives beds and pots a tidy, contemporary finish while helping reduce soil splash and suppressing some weed growth. They act as an inert top layer that doesn’t alter soil chemistry and can visually unify mixed pots or flowerbeds.

• Neat, long-lasting decorative surface that resists weathering.
• 1–1.5" stones create a clean, sculpted look for beds and borders.
• Non-organic material that avoids decomposition and staining common with mulch.

Can I use these river rocks in aquariums and water features?

Yes — the pebbles are suited to freshwater aquariums, ponds, and water gardens where an inert, natural substrate is desired. They won’t leach dyes or organic matter, and their rounded surfaces are gentle on small aquatic inhabitants when rinsed before use.

• Recommended for aquariums, ponds, and terrariums after thorough rinsing.
• Rounded edges reduce abrasion for fish and delicate plants.
• Neutral mineral composition preserves water conditions when properly prepared.

What are the practical details: size, weight, and durability?

The bag contains approximately 18 pounds of stones with individual pieces around 1 to 1.5 inches across; natural variation means shapes range from round to slightly flat or irregular. These rocks are mineral-based and do not decompose, so they retain their look without frequent replacement.

• Weight: 18 lb per bag for broad coverage in pots and small beds.
• Stone size: about 1"–1.5", suitable for topdressing and medium-scale accents.
• Durability: natural rock resists rot and lasts significantly longer than organic mulch.

How should I install and maintain these decorative stones?

Installation is straightforward: spread a clean layer over soil, use landscaping fabric underneath to reduce weeds if desired, and rinse stones before placing in aquatic settings. Maintenance is minimal — occasional rinsing or a quick hand-rake will remove debris and keep the finish crisp.

• For garden beds, lay landscape fabric for extra weed control, then distribute stones evenly.
• Rinse thoroughly before aquarium use to remove dust and fine particles.
• Periodic cleaning with a hose or skimmer preserves appearance without chemicals.
