I just made my own reef rocks yesterday. The process is very simple. Just grow a successful SPS tank for 5 years then add 900Ml NoPox over 8 hours and presto! Just like magic, 3 days later you have a tank full of brand new reef rocks!

It used to be pretty common to make reef rocks. You can make all sorts of custom shapes. To make it puorus add rock salt to the cement. It will disolve out when soaking to decrease the PH. People used to but it in their toilet tanks until the PH drops.
There was a company that had lots of info on making your own rocks on their website sites. I can not think of the name at the moment. Search the old Reef Central archive threads and you should find lots of threads on making rocks.
Personally, I would never set up a tank without a good portion being fully curred live rock.
I have all the materials to make rock I bought years ago but never used, if someone is interested.

Can you make a sample rock and show the product? I wouldn't be surprised that it will look similar.
