I got a 55lb box of real reef mixed rock, which honestly seemed like too much — a decent amount left in the box. I think I could have gotten away with 40. Good luck!About how many lbs of rock did you use ? Have the same setup and trying it estimate how much rock to get ?

BRS I think? Or marine depot—I think one (or both) was having a Black Friday sale when I ordered. I just got a box of the mixed sized pieces, which was easy, but fwiw I think I’d probably get a smaller box of mixed pieces and then some of the shelves or other shapes for some variety. I took to the box I got with a hammer to get different sized pieces, but I am neither artistic nor handy enough to manipulate the rocks beyond breaking them up and then gluing big chunks together.Where did you order from
Thanks! I used real reef rock, which I think looks similar to the Carib sea. After filling it up a few of the smaller rocks have moved a skosh to accommodate cleaning.Looks great! Looks like you got the rocks down below the sand, which comes in handy. Did you use carib sea? I used similar looking rock and that's what it was. Only input would be to move what looks to be a free floating rock up into the corner so you have some clearance between the glass. Nice work!
Did you super glue?BRS I think? Or marine depot—I think one (or both) was having a Black Friday sale when I ordered.

I used super glue toward the top of the arch. The lower part seems fairly stable.Did you super glue?
