I can't imagine someone giving me eroneous information......

Anybody got some pictures of a frame that I can get some hints from? And here I was thinking that my rock work looked pretty good. I take it you make a frame to sort of fit the back tank wall and just keep filling it in then lean it all up against the back wall?

LOLOLOLOLOL, anyway, without actually showing you how to stack rock, here's some pointers:

Get a good diamond drill bit. You'll need it. Drilling rock gives you so many advantages over just trying to stack it.

Get some long nylon zip ties.

Get a length of 3/4" pvc pipe and a bunch of elbows and T's.

Make a frame out of the pvc. Drill holes in rocks. Zip tie rocks to frame.

Once you have partial rockwork on the frame, you can just fill in the gaps with rubble and coral. Great way to get a lot of volume filled in with minimal rock.
