I was looking at pics of rocks, I think they are cobblestone, the smooth
big rocks. would that be safe in a tank, I know some rocks are limestone
and that's not safe,


Not safe? That's what I use all the time and no PH crashes since. If I
had acid water/soft water fish I wouldn't use them.

I looked at pics and none that I have seem to be that
texture.

ok i guess i thought limestore would cause problems with the PH, i have some
neat rocks in my yard, and i am setting up the female betta tank and would
like to put some in there for hiding and just because i think it would look
neat.

Limestone is likely to raise your pH. Which may or may not be good,
depending on your current pH and the tank's inhabitants. Hence my
advice to check your pH daily after adding. Keep on rocking.
