Where'd you source it?
This looks interesting... im going to need to do some aquascaping as well. How good is stuff to work with?
Better than the 2part epoxies?
I used pond foam last time around.

I haven't used it personally but there are several videos out there on how to use it (ReefDudes, BRS, etc.) to make some pretty amazing aquascapes. The folks in all the videos claim it's so strong that the rocks you're attaching are more likely to break than your joint is.

I bought it last week from J&Ls.
Works great once cured.
I did have to use Aquaweld to hold the rocks in place before applying the Mortar.
Gel super glue should work too.
I like the Aquaweld because it hardened very quickly, no mess and reusable. Although I wouldn't recommend it for smooth surfaces. The more uneven the surface the better it bonds, especially with holes.

This is what I came up so far with 75 lbs out of the 300 I have
I agree I like the caves and lots of places for corals
I dont have the e400 yet and this was just 5 minutes of playing around

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThat looks great!
Once you start breaking up bigger pieces of rock and gluing them together, youll notice how little space it will take up in the tank. 300lbs is a lot of rock but it might not look as much once your done building your aquascape.
Also build smaller structures that you can piece together in the tank. Otherwise it will get too heavy to lift and place inside.
Good luck! :)
