    wow...big and heavy for sure.

    I like the sculptural feel of it. No doubt it will look awesome adorned in algae and eventually corals.

    You have put an incredible amount of effort into this project. That is awesome!

    New DIY LIVE ROCK

    So about 3 days ago my diy rock that i made for my tank finally finished curing out. I got it all in the tank but was not easy one piece wieghts 94 pounds and is 22x19x10 i made about 240 pounds all together to put in. It has been curing for about 2.5 months and it was a pain changing water every few days. The pics were with my phone so they arent the best but let me know what u guys think of it. :confused:

    Hey nice to see an update on this thread - looks great! You have tons of great places for your corals to settle in and grow.

    You have come a long long way :)
