![]() I called all over Edmonton looking for them at LFS. Noone had any in stock. I was directed to Rona and HD and a no go there. I just chiseled them to fit and epoxy away lol and I didn't want to buy a masonry bit either, my general purpose bit worked just fine for zip tie size holes through thin parts of the rock.

![]() Acrylic rods and epoxy - https://www.bigreefdepot.com/Aquariu...ocks-s/125.htm
There's always a chance glues/epoxy's/cements etc won't hold or will crack, decreasing the stability of your rockwork. Drilling the rock and using acrylic rods is a definite way to prevent avalanches and potentially glass shattering rock crashes. That being said, Eli know's his stuff with fijicrete, after all, he is the rock guy!
