      Good news it is very easy to do this, I went to a store in my area that sells garnet sand for sandblasting and found some that is very red and beautiful for a good price. I was able to get 50lbs for under 100$. I will be putting a tank together today with no fish or plants for testing just to see what it does with the PH balance and more, If anyone wants the feedback on this I will post the results here.

      I bought many amethyst, blue topaz, lapis, aventurine and pink quartz 36” bead strings from the jewelry district downtown for $80. I soaked and stirred them in tap water before placing in my aquarium. I then bought some larger pieces of amethyst to place in the aquarium and the Clown Loaches loves to play with them by moving them around like balls.

    We used to find tons of almandine garnets while gold panning in Vermont. I used to save all the big ones but stopped after accumulating a gallon freezer bag full. Some of them were pretty big, nearing walnut sized. Same as in your area though, all the big ones were so dark they looked black. The tiny ones and fragments were a great red color though. Those hardrock specimens you got at the end are awesome!

    I just got done panning out some garnet sand from the Baltic sea and I absolutely love how it turned out. The material from the area typically doesn't have too many bigger garnets in there but that doesn't bother me too much. Cool thing about the sand from there is that there are (small) chances of gold, platinum and other gems like zirconia to be found there.
    Also, this was actually the first time I've ever successfully panned something! I've tried before once but didn't know at all what I was doing. After watching your videos for a while, looking closely at what you're doing while you're panning and thinking a littl about the theory behind it, it finally worked for me!

      Excellent comment! As a child and young adult I did a bit of fishing, mostly pond and riverbank. Now I have lived in Washington state, USA for many years and have never fished here. I am hoping to learn enough to go lake fishing this summer. I have never used roe, mostly just red wiggler worms.

    • @mikeblair2594

      @@lilolmecj Stream fishing is more fun (in my opinion). Some of the small creeks have some big fish. I used to go to the pet food store and get a bunch of crickets. I'd get up to the creek I wanted to fish and bring a pole or just some line and hooks, no weights. I'd cut a willow pole about 8 to 10 feet long and tie about twelve feet of line with a hook at the end. You get above a hole that looks good and float A cricket down into the hole and you don't want to let your shadow hit the water. When your cricket gets to the hole if he's paying attention, the boss fish will be the first to hit it and they hit hard. Then you go down to the next hole.
      I understand that this is kinda primitive way to fish, but its fun and it presents the bait to the fish in a more natural way. In some areas the fish are skittish and won't hit anything, but they'll hit this way.
      Anyway, have fun and I hope you might try my way. BTW, my way is legal in Washington state. Good luck

    Garnets vary depending on the quality. A 1-carat garnet with inclusions could cost around $500 while a cleaner garnet with a more rare colour could cost between $2,000 and $7,000 per carat. More rare garnets, like demantoid and tsavorite, will cost more.

    Only place I've ever been where you could literally scoop up small garnets was near Mount Frosty mine, Mount Isa, Queensland. Garnets were embedded in schist host rock along with Staurolite crystals. We used to look for the crossed crystals (Maltese crosses) and multiply crossed crystals (Fairy cartwheels) there. Almost all the small garnet crystals were perfectly formed. Never found any larger than 2mm in diameter though. There were supposedly other nearby areas where larger garnets could be found but the country was truly rugged and only way in was trekking miles on foot in a very arid environment.

    I have always loved your garnet videos, it's awesome to see you panning for these . I have panned out garnets for few years now.
    I did craft a sieve but, unfortunately there are no known localities for any gemstones in Estonia, so everytime I go prospecting, I'm kind a looking for everything.
    Oh I wish I'd find a spot where garnets are laying around like caviar, not hiding in rivers, and inside tough mica shist/quartz kind of matrixes:D .
    I craft jewelry like you mention 06:30(inlay rings, epoxy and glow powders) - I took it as a mission to find craft worthy materials here in Estonia. I knew it's not an easy task but learning from the best ;P, I have had a more interesting journey that I did expect. No gold yet but calcite, all kinds of quartz, garnets and pyrite everywhere. Not giving up on gold either, one day, I'll find just a single spec to prove them all wrong :D

    They are awfully small. Just like the garnet sands where I found gold in lower Michigan. I found some large ones in the UP but not good colors.

    I can imagine an aquarium with ground material made from purely from that small grain garnet. With a few vibrant colored, bigger fish. It could make a nice red theme aquarium.

      @@Danhurd ... That's out here on the Trinity River in north California, we used to dredge on it back when that was legal. I never kept any of the garnets but we used to get some good gemmy little ones, like these but darker red.

    Dan, if you want Garnett's, I have many, 10% of them just smaller then a marble. All of them as big as a pencil eraser. I can get pounds of them if you are interested.
