Show me your CUBE tank rockwork!

[agoutihead]

wow... I cant believe how blue they are.

I only have 250W, I have thought about going with those, as they are obviously good bulbs overall, but I dont think the 250's are nearly as blue as your 400W ones seem to be.

My buddy has 150W and they are good, but nothing like yours.

great tanks y'all! here's my contribution... my old 60g cube (I don't have it anymore)

 

[Geddex]

Thanks LUVSPS and NaH2Ofreak, at yor service for further information.

The rock overhang is based on a plastic structure (a modified bottle container) on to wich I have strapped live rock, all around it, so its completely covered . Lots of current behind the rock work to blow away sand and detrius from there.

 

[LUVSPS]

Wow great idea^^ What lighting do you have over your awesome tank, Geddex?

This is awesome, did you just glue a bunch of smaller rocks together until you got this look?

Or are they just stacked?

Thanks agoutihead, I glued a lot of smaller, grapefruit sized pieces together. It really was a PITA, trying to get them to all hold in place. I just used the 2 part epoxy from HD.

Great tanks everyone. I love cubes.

Here is the link to my build thread if any one want to take a look.

Kendo...fab aquascaping! I love it.

MH only, almost, 18W of blue and 250 w 20000K BLV in a Giesemann fitting.

I ordered a 16000K aqua medic though. Curious to try that one out.

Here is my 30x30x24 cube. I just set it up and mixed it with dry rock and LR from my current tank, I'll remove some of the established pieces once everything is a bit more stable. I've also since added sand but you get the idea of the rock structure.

 

[Casshern]

Here's what mine looks like:

[Geddex]

Blazer88, awesome light in your tank, what bulbs are you using. What is the "background" made of?

Giga, same question to you, how did you do the rockwork along the glass?

 

[60Cubed]

This is my 60cube. I will try and take some better pics tomorrow. FTS are more difficult than some might think!

My tank just finished cycling my 60 cube so its barren.

There are two arches. The one in the front is tougher to make out. I'll get a shot of the side.
