Aquascaping?????

O.k. here is the thing. Originally I was going to go with some dry rock from marco rocks but I ran into a great deal on craigslist for 150 lbs of rock 60 lbs fiji and 90 lbs base rock. I have to say it is great with some great pieces to do what I am planning to do. With that said:

1. The rock is already cured so I want to dip in fresh RO/DI water to get it clean (i know, i know I'm probably going to get hammered on this) but it will make it easier to do the aquascaping.

2. I would like to use the nylon thread and drill to piece them together but where o where can I get some. I will be purchasing sand from marco rocks and they have 3/8 available but I would like to use 1/4 (which they are out). Does anyone know where else to get some.


thanks

If you have cured rock why do you want kill it by dipping it in fresh water make a batch of salt water and dip it in there to clean it.

 

I never understood people buying live rock and then killing it...

 

Telgar thanks for the info.

2in10 would that really make a difference if I am going to have it out of the water while I am doing the aquascape.

Unclejed- that would be a money thing and also because i want to do an aquascape and not pile it all up. It will live again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
