Foam rock aquascaping

Hey all, I'm new to the hobby of saltwater tanking and am looking for a bit of help in the foam aquascaping department. I've found a plethora of information on how to make your own aquascape/reef out of foam or out of cement but i'm not very confident my my artistic skill so i was curious if anyone knew where i could buy these items already made? (at least until i can practice a bit and make something i like) So if anyone has an idea of what i should look for, or a manufacturer just to have the info in my back pocket that would be super helpful.
 
There was a company out of Germany making fake rock walls that looked really good, they also had cool magnetic rock covers for powerheads but I can't seem to find the company name again. But I do know that they were ridiculously expensive. Not worth it in my opinion. There are plenty of posts on here explaining how to do it. I'm about to do it myself here in a couple days. I will post my build once I get a little more done. Waiting for the tank to get back from the glass shop. It's really not that difficult by the looks of it. If I were you I would just give it a go and see what happens! not that expensive to try.
 
Cans are about 7 bucks a piece. Very inexpensive and you can always remove and try again, add or what have you. Keep in mind, it expands A LOT.
I recently played around with it for some turtle tanks... If you can afford it maybe use a can on a piece of wood and try it out to get used to the pressure, expansion etc...
