Default 12 hours of Aqua Scaping for This....
After seeing some other peoples tanks around town, I decided a tear down and rebuild was in order. Used Acrylic rods (thanks for the info KIEN) and this is the result....





Some day all those little frags will grow up to be nice big spectacular colonies (If I don't kill them first).

It looks great. I like the multi levels and all the arches.

Drilled holes in the rocks slightly larger then the rods and just slide them in. Good old gravity and friction. If it all comes tumbling down over night I'll seriously regret not using epoxy or cement .

I have no idea what it looked like before but I love how it looks now. That Kein dude sure sounds like a helpful guy. Wish I could be as cool as him. Anyway, well done!

Looks precarious and cool! I used to see builds at this stage with all the 2-3 branch frags and think 'man that looks bare'.

Now I've got the single branch frags (true sticks!) and I'm envious haha!

Yeah, if you have a chance you should meet 'Kein'. Great guy, nice tanks and an excellant speller. You could learn a thing or two from him.
