Which got better results do you think, a mold, or just hand-done on a garbage bag?

I like the looks of the hand molded on myself but it is a personal preference I think. With the sand mold, I used a plastic bag between the sand and the concrete but if you like the sand (or aragonite) texture, I would just skip the bag. I have some pretty course aragonite that I might use for the mold next time to give the rock more texture.

Well I went out and got 20 more lbs of live rock, stacked it up on the pvc tubing just the way I wanted it, put everything back in. And now to see if it all worked. I still need about 5 lbs of rock to finish up but it'll get there.

Thanks Keith for coming over and giving me your suggestions and encouragement.

Damn that was a long night.........
