125 Gallon Rocks

[Qs Evolution]

I'm looking at buying some rocks for my 125 gallon tank, I'm planning on housing some African cichlids.

What kind of rocks are these?
I want something like this, or similar. If you know where I can find something like this let me know please.I know I can go to some rocks yards, but I'd rather not drive around town looking. Im sure someone on here knows where they have something similar.

Thanks guys!

I went to all kinds of landscape and rock yards couldn't find anything like that but fish gallery had something very similar grey slate stones. Below is link to pics of my rocks in my aquarium. There is a rock yard on the north side of town that people recommend but I was unable to make it that far.

How much did you spend on the rocks At fishgallery? Not the back ground but just the rocks on the sand..

Would you happen to know what the name of the yard in the northside?

Thanks if I remember correctly that is about 130 dollars worth of rock there are a few small pieces you cant see in the pics. No I dont remember the name of the rock yard but I know someone on here does.

Man, I'll probably need double, or even triple that amount for a 125 lol /:

Do you have a picture of it in your tank yet?

And is it the Alamo stone located on kirkwood rd? Stafford tx?

I have not had time yet to put it into the tank, and yes you are correct on the location.

Sweet, I'm going to have to go this weekend. Do they have name tags on the rocks so I can know to look for it?
