No borax on these ones or soap on these ones . These are just being added to my pool landscaping , the dirty acid rain cleans them up as time goes on.

those look pretty large- what size and type tumbler did you do them in. Love all the colors and the variety, I can picture sitting by the pool with a nice cool drink and spending hours looking at them all! Life is good!

I have 9 15 lbs going all the time. The bigger the better. The biggest pain is cleaning the leaves and pine needles in the spring. I use a leave sucker to get most out, but still have to pull them all out and get rid of the build up of dirt and bird poop . I have so many black birds that love and I mean love to poop all over my pool tarp. And it's the nice have eaten worm poop. I must have close to 1000 lbs. or more of tumbled stone now. Once it's all cleaned up its nice look at all summer. But most guest aka friends are not interested in them. That's why I thought I would post the what I do with my rocks on here and you tube. I was thinking that I was done with the Indian agate,but I love the mix of colours. I get them in 100 lbs bags a lot of the dark green and black agate and tree agate and moss agate.

they're beautiful. It must be dazzling when the rock covered area gets wet- please take a photo to show us of the whole bed of rocks. Love it!
