  5. wanna see pics of my tank

    I wish I could take the credit for all of my rock looking the way it does, but I can't. Mother nature is the real culprit, I only made about 40% of the rock in my tank, and most of it is hidden from view in the pictures.

  12. Rock supports

    I'm probably using someone elses idea, but to support my rock of the substrate I took a piece of 2" pvc and drilled alot of 1/4" holes down the length of it all then I cut it into 4" pieces and pushed them down in the sandbed facing upwards and I rested my rock on them. The reason I drilled all...
