Lol, I was thinking specifically of those two builds! I like when people can read my mind!

Any ideas on what you want for an aquascape?

We used old dried out live rock to make the rock wall on our tank. We do tile for a living and hubby cut it up on the tile saw. We then used silicone to glue to rock to back wall.

I have pictures of the build at this link. Of course the assembly and build are on the back pages on this blog spot.

Now that the tank is almost eight months old, it looks very natural.

You can also drill the rocks and strap them together with plastic zip ties. Less time consuming than working with pvc, etc. That is what I did with my display tank.
