So Ifrits viv was looking a little bare, and since I spent all my money on buying him, I decided to go shopping for free in my garden, and here's the result...
I happen to be quite the geology buff, so I used my knowledge to pick out what I believe are; a large corner shaped one, a big square one, a rare flat triangle, and a more common garden variety long flat one 
They were all scrubbed in the shower, soaked in boiling water with a bit of bleach, scrubbed in the shower again, and rinsed off again in cold water, then left to dry in the sun.
I'm sure Ifrit will have a good climb later on! |

| They look great. I sometimes raid the garden myself - my Ziska has 3 big sea pebbles underneath her IR as 'hot rocks' to bask on. I think customising your vivs with natural stuff like that is cool - and free too. |

Funny you should post this we've just been beach combing in Weymouth today looking for some nice pebbles for our vivs with my 7 year old son and we got a load soaking in some bleach as we speak.
Made a nice day out we all had fun looking for various shapes and colours.
It's great when you can decorate a viv fro free |

I think it's great, like you say Toggsy, makes for fun scrounging for suitable rocks etc - beats paying £3 a kilo from the petshop too!
Going to look for some hardwood fallen branches next time I'm out on the bike and bake them in the oven to kill off any nasties. |
