Aquascape ?

[josh88]

Ok so I've been seeing this bonsia aquascape online, and it looks really cool. But they say they use putty, a gel super clue to do it. I'm wondering if there is something I'm missing it sounds to easy. Suggestions

seams most use acrylic rods to hold them together + ties and putty. i'm thinking of doing something similar, just a lot easier to do with new rock rather that existing tank.

Oh yeah, I'm taking my rock out of my nano. There's nothing in it, so I don't mind letting the rock sit out.

Keep in mind when you do this it might start a small cycle again, Also people have been building their own rock structures.This allows you to go what everdirection you want with your rock. Basically you use three ingredients: 3 parts crushed oyster shells, 1 part white portland cement #1-2, and 2 parts rock salt. Mix and mold. Cure the cement in cold water.

Yeah lol that's to long. I bought a masonry bit, gonna be doing some drilling I also bought some aquarium putty for the pvc tubing I bought to make everything super strong, and some gel glue that everyone online says works just have to let cure for a day and has to have cyno in it.
