I just wanted everyone on here to know www.txholeyrocks.com is a new sponsor. My web page has videos, informative information about Texas Holey Rocks as well as other information such as Cichlid Health. We upload rocks about 2-4 times weekly, so bookmark us and check frequently. FREE shipping (Continental USA) under 45LB Rocks. NOTE: If you have multiple rocks equaling 60 LBS it's still free shipping.

Thanks

It's pretty amazing the rocks that are like 5" in diameter can be 7LBS or more. Boxing will add 3LBS on average and that is the part that people forget is that a box and packing material to get it to people is the more important end result. It's all worth it to me getting emails from happy people/fish owners in the hobby. It's 20 steps to get one single rock to arrive by mail.

Glad that you like the rocks. Your fish like them even more I imagine . Pricing has really gone down because I have paid for all my expenses. Many people are selling them, but not solely by web page. It's mainly just finding them now. I about got cleaned out for selections of rocks for the web page currently. I have more coming in the week and weeks. As I type this I just finished my second pressure washing on a new batch and today I am photographing some. Hopefully my web admin will come up with some time to post them quickly. The 20 steps it takes to process these can be done in bulk lowering the price of coarse.

The video's were taken on a recent hunt. It had been discussed as to why these rocks were prices the way they are. I call it the farmers field syndrome. Not many know that it's difficult just to find them. I say it's the farmers field cause I speculate that people think it's just a clear path like a farmers field and I just go pick them off the ground nice and bright white. The reality is you mainly can't see 30 yds ahead of you due to the tree density. It's tough in that not only do you have to find them, but haul them out up to a mile or more sometimes. Rocks in a backpack 60+ Lbs in dense greenbelt terrain isn't glamorous in humid hot Texas. By the 10 video's I took I wanted to capture what I have learned and do when I am extracting these rocks.

3 exclusive web pages can be found. I talked to the other 2 and got feedback from them both early on. I did huge amounts of researching these rocks and learned as I go the do's and don't. It's all worth it dispite the difficulties it takes to get these to someones aquarium. What makes it all worth it is when I get a positive feed back from customers.

Send Photo's....... I would like to post it in the picture gallery on the web site.

Thanks Again for the wonderful comments.
Zak
