Got some new Marco Rock for a new build and I was wondering what you all suggest to keep the rock together for a cool aquascape?

Also have you ever cut this rock and if so how did you do it?

Marco Rocks sells a quick setting cement that I used on my current aquascape. it works really well and is super strong. the owner of custom reef creations also showed me a method using pond foam and resin to hold rocks together that works really well and looks very good when done.

I just set up my new 150 all with Marco rock....make sure you get the cement from them....it's easy to work with and amazingly strong....after twenty minutes of cure time I could pick up my whole rock structure with one hand(about 50 lbs of rock)!! I love my Marco rock and probably wouldn't use anything else again for a tank build...good luck rev!!
