I'm setting up my 24gal nano tank for amemones and wanted some live rock. Since I had a tone of rubble rock and no large pieces, I decided to pull out the epoxy and make my own. After the alge starts growing over the epoxy, you'll never be able to see the connections. I used a firm tooth brush and a tiny piece of rock to add texture to the epoxy to help it blend in better. The tooth brush worked wonders. Here are some pics from when I first started and the finished result. Has anyone ever tired this?

I've got a couple handfuls, and was thinking of using some putty and making a single piece, but then I thought it may be more valuable as individual pieces to mount corals to later - pieces that would blend nicely with the aqua scape.
