Permanent Aquascaping



After getting a feel for the live rock, I wanted to make a permanent setting to prevent rocks from falling over. Some of the popular methods include epoxy, using cable ties, making a pvc frame, and using plastic rods drilled into connecting rocks. I went with the connecting rods using plastic coat hangers and Waterweld epoxy. The process was time consuming, but I think it ended up looking pretty good. I can shake any of the rocks pretty hard and they won't budge. The two small rocks covered in purple didn't like the process and bleached almost completely. This should be my last time destroying the tank like this so hopefully I can get the coralline algae to come back strong.
