Rock work

It's a fine line between looking like organic rock work or a fossilized turd.

Those are actual stalactites;

Thanks for a great thread. The photos are very inspiring. I have two tanks that I have to rockscape, so you have provided me with some great ideas. Heck, I might even redo my other tanks too :)
I guess using foam and all the other unnatural materials is safe, but I still have reservations about using anything other than real rock and plumbing pipe. Although after this thread, I might just have to push the boundaries of my comfort zone!
