Looks really nice...I like your rock, where did you get the dry rock? I am getting ready to set up a 120 and I am debating between BRS and marco...that is really only 60 lbs of dry rock??

I got it from BRS. It's 40lbs of reefsaver rock and 20lbs of pukani rock. Yeah I was quite surprised that I got that much rock for that poundage. They may have given me an extra couple of pounds, but 60lbs is what I ordered. It came really fast too in 2 days (I live in OH).
 
Well, I'm sure I like it. Nice job.

That's amazing looking....was trying to get mine to turn out the same way but I think I still put in too much rock.

Let me know what you think...
 
I think it is PERFECT!!!!!!!!

If I had to do it over I would have used less rock. My old 180-gl had over 200 lbs. When I did my most recent 180-gl I add half and was i went even less then that. Minimal rock aquascape is the way to go and wish i came across this thread back in March of 2010. It is one of my favorite RC threads I subscribe too.

HTH......Tony
 
Looks good Andrew, now put some water in that sucker.

Thanks Brett. Believe me I can't wait to fill it up!!

How many pounds of rocks are there? The rocks looks just right.

It is around 55lbs total. Thanks
