Foam/rock wall help?

[DreTheReefer]

Was just wondering what everyone thinks is the easiest option here? I've never tried anything like this before.

...not sure what you are asking, but the most accepted approach is to use eggcrate, dry rock, and zip ties. Foam the gaps to cover remaining exposed egg crate. Epoxy and sand is optional. Depending on the size of your panels, you may try to find the more rigid black eggcrate instead of the flimsy white stuff at the box stores.

Lots of info on this website...good luck! :beer:

...oh yeah, you'll want to use A LOT of rock. The foam is extremely bouyant.

Building a wall is VERY easy. Do not over think it. I poored over threads for hours and hours and finally just decided to throw caution to the wind and try it. Took me 20 minutes to complete it, and now the GF has a wall for her 29 cube that started growing coralline in 3 weeks! Just use a little imagination and a few rough ideas from here and you are good to go.
