Ohhhhhhhh the anticipation!! I can't wait to see how this comes together..have you picked up the rock yet??

yes i have 77lbs of dry rock waiting for me to take a hammer to it. as wel as some other 50lbs of wet dry rock(dont ask) armed with zip ties and two cans of great stuff foam.. and two cans of resin and a couple bags of white and brown substrate to mix into it for texture. the overflow wall has to be built in two parts in order for me to hide the eggcrate and my support beams. i will take pics of all that before i start. i hope it works and i dont hate it.. or worse the wife hates it

Are those rectangular holes for return or closed loop nozzles?

Those are for powerheads

Cool

well i wasn't going to post these but what the heck they will be eventually im unsure about my powerhead ports at this time will see how it progresses... but for now centre overflow wall is 50 precent complete i have to epoxy and sand/seal it before i continue with the frontal rockwork/cave. i knowi know it looks like a blob of yellow. i can only hope for the best lol

here are the pics

Well, it may look like a blob to you, but I'd say you're moving along nicely

are you going to coat the foam with some quickcrete or something? looks great BTW

I'm calling it sponge bob ATM.. And yes it is slowly coming along only 2 more rock walls to build stand / trim/ hood/ under the stand plumbing.. Wiring...ato plumbing moving The 90
THen pray the floor can handle the weight aqua sculpturing and finally the water switch over from 90 to reduce cycle...

I cringe to what all has to be done lol
