    Dude, I haven't seen this thread until now!
    This was a cool thread... I like the low budget idea coming together comment... lol.
    That is pretty sweet with the two together and building the wall and all.

    If you were good with a drill, you could have drilled bulk heads to bring the two tanks together... still cool looking though!

    Well here are the first few diy rocks to fill up the display with. going to play with the mix and shapes when doing the remaining ones to see what i can come up with different looking, then in the barrel they go with some water to cure for about 8 weeks.
