The guy at the garden supply told me the gravel was a mix of scoria,blue metal and quartz,
not being a geologist I took his word for it.
I am going to put some in an acid solution to see what reaction I get from the gravel....

Hey bill, neat looking setup.

Just test the rocks with some vinegar, if it doesn't bubble then you're good.

Complex looking piping next to the IBC, whats happening there?

How are you trying to cycle it?
