Default Granite? erm rocks

Hey guys.
Does anyone know off hand if granite is ok for use with reps?
I know theres a few types of wood/tree/ and possibly rocks that arent you see although i usually assuem most are fine..

so who knows?

if theres loads of different types of granite then sorry i dont know a lot about rocks and stuff to be honest.

Anyway I have came into possesion of 6 big pieces and ive cleaned them and stuff... infact they were virtually spottless, hardly any dust or anything come off them... from the beach actually but anyway...

so yay or nay?

Would be a yay..in fact granite is very good as it holds a lot of heat and releases it over a long period some great thermodynamic qualities for reptiles. Only problem is it is so damn heavy!

cool..sure he will appreciate it. Granite is best used with nocturnal species and sandstone with diurnal but i use granite with my Blue tongues and bosc cos they would just move anything else around the viv like a ball!!
