So I wasn’t happy with the way the pics represented the aquascaping. It didn’t seem to show the depth that one sees when viewing it in person. Here is a short video look at it.

I know! I'm really going to have fun with this one. The plan is to put two Tunze Srteam 3 pumps below the rockwork on the right side just to make a nice gyre in the tank. The return will be on a seaswirl so that should provide a nice random type flow. I hope I wont need any additional flow.

I don't know... it's nice and all... but it is still a little dry.
I don't mind the dry on some good Memphis style ribs, but I want my aquarium rocks to be wet.

I hear you but after experimenting with the 25g, I am sure I can make dry work just fine.I don't know... it's nice and all... but it is still a little dry.

Thanks! The rock is cemented together using E-Marco 400 Aquascaping Mortar. Joe went through great lengths to make sure the cement could not be visible from the front wherever possible. The rockscape was however was completely stable during the initial mock up and would have been fine without the cement. Also there is nothing in the aquascape (shelves or overhangs) that needed to be supported so that it could be cemented I place. Here are examples of the cement viewable only from the top and left side of the tank.

Hi @gcarroll, Your scape looks great! Are you going to seed the dry rock with live? I am cycling a tank with Marco dry rock and I am not sure if I need to pick up some live to seed. I am using bio-spira and live sand for the cycle.
I look forward to learning from your build.
