Nice and porous rock Russ, do I need to get the Grammar Nazi on you?

Russ, that is some of the nicer diy rock I have seen. Very porous and should color up nicely. I think Tracy and Rita might be interested in trying this when they set up thier 125.

I think it will make a good island.

You know with my tall rock "island" I end up having a very bright spot right at the top but you cant seem to be able to light the bottom and mid section at all. If you do that island and have luminarcs right above it you'll end up the same situation as mine. I would step it so at the bottom maybe 12" wide an the top maybe only 3" wide for 1 coral another words more of a pyramid style so you can glue more frags to it.

I was planning on doing a slope type aquascaping when I move my tank. SO I have more room for frags.
