I am fixing up my aquascape. How do you use acrylic rods? Do you just drill holes into the rocks to put them in?

Drill slow and make sure you have a good grip on the drill and the rock a second set of hands is helpful. I also use the drill to make frag holes. Also make sure you base is heavier than the top.

Yep just drill holes where you want them... a bit made for masonry will last longer than a standard bit.
