Often mistaken for Fossil Wood due to its layered appearance, Grey Fossil is actually \u003cstrong data-start=\"279\" data-end=\"289\"\u003egneiss\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the most advanced metamorphic rock types. Extreme heat and pressure have forged its signature structure: alternating bands of blocky feldspar crystals and fine, plate-like mica layers that create subtle striping, mineral shimmer, and a calm, architectural presence unlike any other hardscape stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"598\" data-end=\"1158\"\u003eUnder directional light, the mineral bands flash with a cool silver glint while valleys sink into charcoal shadow, enhancing the stone’s sculptural relief and three-dimensional depth. Under diffused top lighting, Grey Fossil softens into a smooth metallic gradient — perfect for minimalist Iwagumi concepts, mountainous ridge scapes, paludarium backdrops, and any layout where clean form and quiet drama take center stage. Submerged, its tones deepen toward steely grey; in terrariums, its dry surfaces reveal matte mica textures that read ancient and refined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1160\" data-end=\"1634\"\u003eCompose as you would with monumental towers: begin with your tallest statement piece, then stair-step medium stones forward to establish perspective and natural paths. Use smaller accents to bridge height transitions and strengthen geological flow. Pale sands amplify sparkle and contrast, while darker substrates create immersive depth and gallery-style calm. Paired with fine-leaf plants or mosses, Grey Fossil delivers striking contrast without overwhelming the greenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1641\" data-end=\"1664\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1645\" data-end=\"1664\"\u003eAvailable Sizes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e4.4 lb (2 kg) Nano Bag\u003cbr\u003e11 lb (5 kg) Nano Box\u003cbr\u003e24 lb (11 kg) Standard Box\u003cbr\u003e46 lb (21 kg) Mega Box\u003cbr\u003eAvailable per pound as well\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1906\" data-end=\"1932\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1910\" data-end=\"1932\"\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e✓ Metallic grey tower stones with monolithic forms\u003cbr data-start=\"1984\" data-end=\"1987\"\u003e✓ Advanced metamorphic banding with natural mica shimmer\u003cbr data-start=\"2043\" data-end=\"2046\"\u003e✓ Excellent for building depth, paths, and layered cliff structures\u003cbr data-start=\"2113\" data-end=\"2116\"\u003e✓ High-impact stone with refined, architectural presence\u003cbr data-start=\"2172\" data-end=\"2175\"\u003e✓ Creates remarkable contrast with plants and wood\u003cbr data-start=\"2225\" data-end=\"2228\"\u003e✓ Suitable for aquariums and terrariums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2274\" data-end=\"2289\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2278\" data-end=\"2289\"\u003eDetails\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eColor: Metallic grey\u003cbr\u003eStone Sizes: Mixed stones approx. 1–12 in (3–30 cm)\u003cbr\u003eTexture: Highly textured, monolithic formations with rounded shapes and mineral banding\u003cbr\u003eComposition: Metamorphic gneiss with feldspar crystal layers and mica striping\u003cbr\u003eAtmosphere: Clean, monumental, high-depth landscapes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2632\" data-end=\"2656\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2636\" data-end=\"2656\"\u003eSetup \u0026amp; Care\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ePre-wash: Rinse thoroughly and gently scrub before use\u003cbr data-start=\"2716\" data-end=\"2719\"\u003ePlacement: Lay substrate or LandForms beneath stones to protect the glass\u003cbr data-start=\"2800\" data-end=\"2803\"\u003eMixing: Secure stacked or layered arrangements with ScapeBound for stability\u003cbr data-start=\"2887\" data-end=\"2890\"\u003eClearance: Keep a small distance from aquarium glass for easy maintenance access\u003cbr data-start=\"2974\" data-end=\"2977\"\u003eWater Chemistry: May slightly raise pH and water hardness — manage with routine water changes using RO\/soft water or with water softeners if needed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3130\" data-end=\"3193\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eSafe for fish, shrimp, and all aquatic and terrarium animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dalua International LLC","offers":[{"title":"Per pound","offer_id":58069825192239,"sku":"sku-46353741250711","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.4 lb Nano Bag","offer_id":58069825225007,"sku":"WIO-GRFNANO2KG","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 lb Nano Box","offer_id":58069825257775,"sku":"WIO-GRFSLBOX5","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 lb Standard Box","offer_id":58069825290543,"sku":"WIO-GRFSLBOX11","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"46 lb Mega Box","offer_id":58069825323311,"sku":"WIO-GRFSLBOX20","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2172\/7975\/files\/5f6902_352d0c220d3c4861b3f85c96a346afa3_mv2.png?v=1781272688","url":"https:\/\/uniquecorals.com\/products\/wio-grey-fossil-stone","provider":"UniqueCorals ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
