DIY rock structure with skeleton

[epitoke]

Going to use this as the skeleton to make my rock structure. Thoughts on leaving it all open or capping the ends? Could make for some cool caves for small fish. Also the piece branching upwards is going to come out of the water. Just need to grab a longer piece

I'd fill it with something and cap it

 

[epitoke]

What would you recommend filling it with?

 

[calvo15290]

Sand?

 

[epitoke]

That's a good idea. Thanks.

No problem I'd be concerned with fish firing in it I had a breeding pair of albino Eureka peacocks that tried to go in a flower pot but there heads didn't fit and sliced open there skull

 

[epitoke]

Wow. Ya I wouldn't of ever thought that would happen. Thanks for your input.

 

[epitoke]

Do you think I need to glue all the joints? Or could I just leave them?

 

[calvo15290]

I imagine that they'll be fine you can use reef safe glue if you want

 

[epitoke]

Again. Good idea. Thanks for your help. I'm off to the hardware store again. Haha.

Don't go to the dollor store

 

[epitoke]

True. That's where I got my super glue gel. But I need to get some caps for the pipe and also some other joints for the skeleton.

 

[calvo15290]

Oh okay haha
