Please help with crystal stones smooth pebble choice

[JRo]

I have narrowed it down to tropical isle, gray harbor, and Caribbean. Can you please show me your pics? I’m in Texas and have a large full sun no shade yard. I’ve seen pics online but usually they are of a corner of the pool or a shaded area. I never would’ve guessed how crazy this decision could make you ?. Thank you!

How do pool builders/surface mfrs expect people to choose something if there are no decent example pics?

I had a different product and got blue stone mixed in..Learned the color stands out less in real life, or at least my case in Georgia..Wish I had went with the one with more Blue

JR,

I have Crystal Stone "Stone blue pear mini" (smooth)...

To attache the word "smooth" to this product is wishful thinking.. It is really ok, but it is like 80 grit sandpaper... far from smooth..

Not sure it will help in the least, but here is a shot of my pool.. I wanted a look as close as possible to a standard white plaster pool, but wanted pebble..

Thank you! That’s beautiful! I do think I need a little bit darker for contrast with my sand color shelf.
