I bought this statue form a wholesaler who is specialist to import Asian statue from China. It dont have effect on the water quality. I think it is a kind of sandstone. If you are not sure try some drops hydrochloric acid on the material, if there is no effect the material is free of lime...the most important if you want to use it for a planted aquarium.

Bu tasarýmýnýz hakkýnda bir soru sormak istiyorum. Gerçkten tasarým çok hoþuma gitti. Bu Buda heykelini siz herhangi bir yerden rastgele mi aldýnýz yoksa suda zarar görmeyecek bir ürün mü ? Ben de ileride benzer mantýkta bir tank yaparak kopya çekebilirim de
