I have now used this product for a few years w/o a break. They don’t break down, so repeated use means you do get your money’s worth. Others have seen them i. My tank and are i. Awe and likewise follow suit, which is how I came to buy them. A neighbor had the same tank, used the same priduct, and referred me to Amazon. ... show more

  • Best bang for your buck
Size: 40 Liter Bag Pattern Name: Bag
The 40L bag seems to be the best offering as far as clay stones for hydro go. These are a little rougher, and to some uglier, than hydroton. I find washing these out is a little better than dealing with hydroton. During transport you'll get some sand generation as a result of the stones rubbing against one another, but that quickly washes out. Sizes are a bit more random, ranging from very small to very large. Post-hydro they work well to aerate soils as well, albeit they are a bit large. ... show more

  • My favorite LECA
Size: 25 Liter Bag Pattern Name: Bag
I bought this LECA because it was the cheapest I could find for the quantity. As others have mentioned, most of it is not round. If aesthetics are concerning for you, this LECA isn’t for you. I actually think all the variation makes the LECA fit together nicer, and I actually get better results with it. Yes roots stick to it, but roots stick to the round ones too. Yes it’s a little dusty when you get it, but what LECA won’t be? They all rub on each other during shipping. Just rinse it and it’s completely fine. No they do not sink. I don’t know what makes these different than others, but they definitely always float. It doesn’t really bother me, so that’s not a concern. Having said all of that, I’m very happy with it for what it is! It works great and the price is right! ... show more

  • Good product. Quite a bit more dirt on them then what I've gotten in smaller quantities.

Product is good, weights were on point. I had to work a bit harder washing them clean. Other than that, the product works as it should.

Love this laca pebbles. This is a really big bag and amazon had it cheaper than my local store. For indoor plants I recommend to soak them up in boiling water as others mentioned that some flies were coming out so wanted to stay protected and kill all the bugs/bacteria’s although didn’t noticed any just as a precaution ... show more

  • 10 liters is quite a bit - good pebbles
Size: 10 liter Pattern Name: Bag
If you are looking for perfectly round pebbles, like on the photo on the bag, look elsewhere. I read the reviews, so I was aware of what I was getting. Most of the pebbles were irregular shaped and looked like odd lava rock, but that does not affect my hydroponics system. I use a combination of hydroton in the bottom of each tier of the system and then in the grow baskets surrounding my roots. I used to grow directly in the tiers, in perlite, but I have always enjoyed hydroton, and this way I also have more control over the root system so that it does not clog my system. I just ordered a 40 ltr bag because 10 ltrs was only enough to make a short foundation in each of the tiers of one system. Since I completely switched over from Perlite this year, I need a lot. I soaked first (see picture of pebbles in the pink tub) and then I drained and strained. Towards the bottom, I strained and rinsed again in the strainer. A lot of mud and residue comes off of these, so be sure to soak and rinse before adding it to your systems. Obviously, I will check pH once I get everything set up for the plants, as I know that having this much hydroton will likely change the water balance, but that is okay. I also used this same brand in an aquaponics system, and I grew strawberries, mint and chamomile successfully. The hydroton did not bother the fish. ... show more

  • Bad Quality
Size: 40 Liter Bag Pattern Name: Bag
I built an aquaponics system for my daughter and filled the grow bed with two bags of this media. The media was extremely dirty and ended up clogging my laundry sink. I’ve never had anything clog my laundry sink before but the excess clay dust from this media did it. Despite soaking the pieces for a week, they still float. Most of the pieces are broken and there are a lot of really small pieces, the size of gravel that can wash down into the fish tank and cause issues with your pump. After figuring out that they don’t stay in place and float, I ended up getting pond rock from Lowes and using that to fill up half of the grow bed. I then used 1 bag of this media to complete the grow bed. This was a lot cheaper and worked a lot better. If I had to guess, I believe this is seconds or perhaps defects that are sold as firsts and for the price, that makes sense. I found much better media from another vendor. The biggest difference is the legit clay sounds like rice crispy cereal when they get wet from all the pores soaking up water. These definitely do not do this. They are more like lava rock or something weird. ... show more
