Alternatives to using rock as 'rubble'

[onlytoby]

Hi guys!

I'm going to be fragging some shrooms soo to share with friends but I don't really have any spare rock to use as rubble.
I have a few pieces of things like broken frag plugs, but are there any alternatives, such as pieces of plastic?

For mushrooms, if you buy just one bag of small frag plugs in bulk, or one rock and a hammer, you’ll probably have all you’ll need for quite some time to come. But maybe other people will have additional suggestions.

If they are for specific friends, you could always ask them to provide the plugs. My experience has been that convincing mushrooms to stick to a specific thing in a specific spot is tricky. Best to cut the surface they are attached to.

Im actually all out of rock as I used it in my aquascape but I did just remember I threw a decent sized piece outside as I didn't think I would need it.

Am I able to just smash this up as and use?
I think that piece was originally in my tank for a month or so but didn't fit the Scape so ditched it

How long do you think I should bleach/vinegar dip for?

10 parts water to one part bleach (add bleach to water) for a week. Rinse, 2 day fresh water soak. Add Prime or Amquel for another day if you want but not really necessary.

If it came from your tank, probably fine to use as is but I always bleach used, dried out rock.
