Ozz... Sorry to fart in your soup bowl but I wouldn't recommend using this type of slate for your tank or any slate-like rock. I know they're using it in this picture but from YEARS of keeping frontosas... esp. Zaires, they get spooked rather easily! (Esp. F-0). They're going to run into the rocks and hurt themselves or take an eye out! Bad news.... I wouldn't even use lace rock... stick to round, smoother cornered rocks... much safer for your investment in fish!

GL.... try going to Thompsons building supply, they sell all types of rock by the pound.

Too highn a price for small bags of it , need enough to cover a 135 g.

you can use 3m black t grade or s grade it looks just like that.... as for the rocks get them at your local rock yard used for landscaping... It would be dirt cheap..
