EternityBC's 450g 12 feet of floating fun

Now I'm kinda leaning to do both cement and break up a bunch of rock.
As a test I bought a reciprocating saw diamond blade


I forgot to get a before picture but here is what it looked like. This was one of my more dense pieces.


And now in half, took about 30 seconds and was super easy.


For the cement this stuff looks good

Here is a note from the manufacturer:

QUIKWALL® Surface Bonding Cement (No. 123150 – Gray; No. 123050 – White) with QUIKRETE® Concrete Acrylic Fortifier (No. 8610) replacing a portion of the clean mixing water as per instructions would be appropriate if you are looking for a trowelable coating for potable water containment. Two 1/8” thick coats will need to be applied for water containment. Products containing cement, such as QUIKWALL® Surface Bonding Cement, change the pH level of the water with which they have contact during the curing time of the concrete – typically 21 to 56 days. It would be recommended to check pH of the water after 1 hour, and periodically thereafter to ensure that it meets the requirements for potable water. You may view the data sheet for the QUIKWALL® at https://www.quikrete.com/pdfs/data_s...230%201231.pdf. Consult local codes since requirements vary.

I figured I have about 100-200 pounds of mixed marco, pukani and shelf rock. I also have a bunch of branch rock coming.

As for the stocking, I'm going for a bit of everything with a fairly high fish load.
