I forgot how much I loved the peg system you have going on your rockwork. I think I'm going to do something similar on my shelf rocks. Just drill a bunch of holes. Do you remember the hole size you drilled? And can you just drill the rock and not try to build those little cement mounds?

I did the mounds to keep the plug off of the ground making it harder for it to encrust anywhere else. I want to say roughly 3/8 of an inch. But what I did was use the frag plugs I was going to use and make they fit as the hole size to use. If you have the time and a fresh new scape I would do the mounds.

Tank is looking happy Dipan, great work. What is the second tenuis in the top down? That thing is killer.
That one needs a name still. But its still also coloring up. Been cooking that piece for close to 2 years and its just now barely starting to get some color.

Damn, the scape and sticks looking good.
Thank you. Super stoked on the new scape.
