![]() i need some rock to do the back wall of my 300g so i ordered 50lbs from bulkreef supply to check it out, its really quite nice rock problem is i didnt really ask for sizes or anything so i got mosty large chunks that would be a shame to cut to pieces, anyway bulkreef is having a sale on rock so im thinking about buying 150-200lbs but since i have to cut it up some pieces wont be anygood to me and im shure ill have alot of extra rock i wont need,
so if i do order this pile of rock is anyone intrested in the rock i dont use? ill sell it for what it costs me which will be in the $3.50-$4.00/lb range by the time you add the exchange/tax/shipping, i want to order by thursday night to make shure it ships on friday and i dont wanta drop $800 on rock if im gonna end up with 50-100 extra pounds

![]() im not really looking for people to go in with as much as just wondering if i end up with a pile of base rock is anyone gonna buy the stuff off me or not,
as for the rock wall ill never build a tank without one again, feel free to come check out the wall in my cube anytime just do it before you fill that tank with water cause youll regret it if you dont

![]() Which rock are you getting? You say base rock but that doesn't mean it's ugly or less porous does it? It's just the fiji/eco rox right?
If you have leftovers and I can convince the wife I'm sure I can swing some man. I know for a fact I'm ordering mine from there when the time comes. |

![]() I could probably buy a bit of ya too there if you had any leftovers. Honestly though, I doubt you'd have much problem unloading any of it on the marketplace.

![]() the tank is 8' long so ill probably leave 5 holes across the back for vortec's and maybe 1 hole on each corner for a tunze, but the rest of the wall will basically be covered,
i kinda figured it would sell alright but since i just bought another new car im not really wanting to drop the money on rocks, normally im quite wastefull with my fish spending and wouldnt give a squat about it but $1500 a month in car payments kinda ruined my fish budget the last batch i bought was the fiji eco rock and its basicly fiji live rock that is just dried out, the stuff thats on sale is a mixture of different kinds of rock but if you buy 125lbs you get 25lbs free so it might be worth it since ill be cutting half of it shreads anyway

![]() Are you planning to attach them directly to the glass again or are you installing a secondary mounting surface just in case you want to remove them?

![]() So you glue the rock to the back glass? Or just stack it up there? Do you have any pictures? I am interested since I might do something similar in future.
