    Does anyone here on this site know of any good aquascaping techniques? I am interested in what people have to offer for different methods of aquascaping and how they do or know of how to do. Any good sites? Thanks ahead of time.

    ;D

    all I did was laid down eggcrate and first did the "wall of rock" look. After getting bored with that I changed to the U formation. I didn't use any epoxy/pvc or anything, just stacked securely. Just use your common sense and keep the largest pieces as your base and go up from there. Give stacks the "wiggle" test and make sure they won't get undermined by diggers, etc. good luck!

    Take everything out of your tank an re-do your rock work. It will look better every time you do it
