Usage

- Always secure the stones, especially when placing one rock on top of another, you can do so with our ScapeBound, as the top rock may move or fall during regular maintenance, harming your dwellers or even breaking the aquarium.
- Position stones a few centimeters/inches away from aquarium glass walls to facilitate maintenance.
