I'm thinking of making an NSA inside a reefer 350 using Marco boulder rocks and three Marco foundation rocks.

I'm going to break the boulders into smaller pieces and attempt to construct a scape with a general shape similar to this one only wider (for the larger size of my tank) and using three foundation rocks:

I like the height the top shelve reaches and all the coves near the bottom especially. This one has been really well done.

Now the question I ask is how many kilograms of Marco boulder rocks will I need to acquire in order to essentially recreate this aqua scape on a slightly larger scale for a reefer 350? Somebody with experience may have a rough idea I guess?

I also do not want to purchase too much excess rock as I don't have a particularly flexible budget currently... I would like to purchase enough for the scape with maybe only a little excess if possible

The one in the picture is a reefer xl300
That still isn't a tank size. Better results posting dimensions and gallons than make and model. Many on here don't use them. Not trying to be mean, just too lazy to research tank sizes.
