Make sure that they're aquarium safe...I'd use smaller ones so that the Cons can hide from any larger fish in the tank. There are lightweight cave structures that come premade from molds...those are a better bet if you have to remove a fish!
well i want to spend as little money as possible hehe got a website or soemthing for these molds?

They won't be cheap when shipped...and unfortunately I don't have a site at present.
ill find something around here then. i dont mind spending a little money, but im not gonna pay 20$ for a rock, i know at my local walmart they have this huge cool flower pot that has big premade holes in it. i figure it i break that in half that would be a great centerpeice

That is what a lot of people do with their C/A Cichlids, so it would be a good choice for the tank!
