I kind of like the look of this rock to for my 55 .... is granite ok for tanks?

Should be, I've seen it sold before. Where did you get it?

its on ebay, and not expensive at all. it will go great with the gravel I picked out to !

I'd check with the seller to make sure they weren't collected from an area sprayed with pesticides or any other chemicals.

Granite is a-okay, I use it in some tanks. Of course I found it in a remote part of an Oregon forest, but I agree with pappy, see if it's been around bad chemicals.

Yep, should be fine as long as there weren't any pesticides or chemicals. I've got 4 granite caves in one tank and a chunk of granite in by brackish tank. No problems at all and looks lovely!

No...bad idea...you should send it directly to me for disposal

Those look like they might be remnants from countertop or headstone cutting...???
