Chicken, cow, human?

Cow was a thought actually. Large and all. I have a ton of smaller bones too though, so I was thinking of doing a graveyard of some sort.Spyral said:Chicken, cow, human?
Any idea about the chemistry though?
Josh and I were going to do this too. We had a dog skull that we were going to throw into one of our tanks. I don't know about the chemistry but we were just going to coat it with epoxy resin or silicone to make it fish safe and not take any chances. It doesn't change the look much, if at all. We have done it with some driftwood in our tank.

But on the other hand, wouldn't the surface area on and in the bone make it GREAT for beneficial bacteria which loves calcium?Ashley said:Josh and I were going to do this too.

Well yeah, but that is considering the bone itself is fish safe. If you have gravel or anything you don't really need any more places for BB to growledieudufromage said:But on the other hand, wouldn't the surface area on and in the bone make it GREAT for beneficial bacteria which loves calcium?Ashley said:Josh and I were going to do this too.
