Aquascaping woes... Round 2 - Experiment

[mik3c]

So I think I have most/all of my essential gear and plumbing parts, etc. I'm about to start a build thread but I'm playing around with a few aquaplaning ideas. I really wasn't satisfied with what I was able to build with the rock I had, so I started taking more extreme measures. As an experiment, I wanted to try breaking a big rock up and seeing if I could put it back together in a more interesting way, I used some acrylic pegs, epoxy, putty and i covered the seams with superglue and patted rubble/dust into them. It does a really effective job (imho) of masking them and i THINK... I can use this technique to build a passable first-time marine 'scape. I can't swear that I didn't grab another lump or two from my rock box but think this is all one big rock, broken down and reformed. What do you think?

It works. It's an interesting look. Rockscape is such a personal thing. IMHO, not enough room for coral placement, but that's just me. I like lots of coral. In a tank with less coral and more fish, it would be great!

Have fun with it!
