Well... good thing you have a BEAST of tank to put them in. Thats some pretty sweet lookin' rock there Mike, should make for some outstanding aquascaping.

Cheers, Todd

Nice rock Mojo! Looks very pourus! I'd love to get my hands on that batch of rock you have there and see what kind of cool aquascape work I could come up with! The fact that it is all base rock would be awesome to work with because there is no race against time. You have all the time in the world to mess with it out of water!

Darth they may be just a little to big, lol I ordered medium and Large, just didnt realize large was HUGE!! I kind of see some chiseling myself

yah was just busting your chops. a few of those pieces may create some huge dead zones in the tank and u could probably make some nice big arch pieces if u break half of that egg shaped one off.

Leave it to Marco, he does everything Big or should we say HUGE! He has some of the best/beautiful rock for reef building in the industry. Look at how clean this rock arrived.

Mojo, you made a great decision going with Marco's rock. I'm starting a new project myself and I too will be using Marco's rock for my build.

Nice rock selection Mojo.
Will be following this build:yo:

 

[mojoreef]

Krish I got about three pieces larger then that, Just insane. What I like about this rock is that it fits together so well, you will never see the joints.

Ok update time, painful day, never a good to have arthritis and work in the water all day.

Started taking the lights and skimmer off the tank.

Started peeling rock out of the tank and put some in the sump, kept some of the nicer corraline covered rock in the sump and one container. I will use this rock to harvest bugs, worms, stars, sponges and so on from when ready

and the balance goes straight into the bleach bin for cooking.

did a little harvesting prior on some of the piece, a little sparkling water and probably got a couple pounds of worms, lol

Caught some fish\

then draining, and draining and draining, lol

and finally it dry, sprayed her down with some vinegar and called it a day....bones are sore..tomorrow I will do a good clean and then rip some plumbing out.

Big thanks to Matt and Steve for all the help.
