Tony I recall not wanting to mess around with parting rock out during that time so you did in fact receive ALL the rock. I'm almost positive.

The right column has a base that is actually made of a piece of shelf rock sorta put upside down. The middle shelf piece broke on my and you'll recognize some tie wraps and epoxy holding the 3 pieces together. The top piece was a sort of triangular piece and I had to use tie wraps to keep it how you see it. I think the boulderish piece on top of the very bottom shelf base had sorta 3 or 4 little leg/nubs to it and you'll see that there is a hole drilled for a tie-wrap through each nub. Those all connected thru the bottom shelf bit and I used those massively long tie wraps to do it.

Hopefully that gets you started in the right direction I dunno it's a tough bizz.

I also got very frustrated with the shelf pieces. I mean they're sorta the creme de la creme but are so damn big and tough to position. I'm sorta a fan of piles now and letting the corals BE the shelves. You could certainly sell them =)
