Some of the aquascaping here is really amazing but it sort of messes with everything that I have been taught about the amount of rock needed for proper growth of nitrifying bacteria. Every article as well as opinion from other reefers says we should use 1 to 1 1/2 lbs of rock per gallon. Some of the photos of tanks here, as beautiful as they look do not seem to have enough. I wonder what size tank is charliethetuna's and razors and how much rock they are using. I am starting to plan a 90g and and maybe I am missing something but are they using enough? That being said this thread has given me some great ideas, well done!

Yep they have plenty of rock! Plus some people will put rock in there sumps if large enough or have the water run through a whole other vat that is full of live rock. Just know the rock does not have to be in the Display it just can be in the system somewhere.
It really has more to do with density and surface area. You could get 200 lbs of solid concrete blocks but they won't do nearly the job of 50 pounds of real reef or Fiji which is porous
it's all about finding the happy medium. Enough to filter but not so much that all you have is rock and covered sand as my tank sits, I have about 1/2-3/4 lb per G in my tank and my water stays pretty clean.Sent Via the R2R Forum APP

Awesome thread! Here's mine:
I made the pillar out of dry rock from ReefCleaners, a half inch thick 13" x13" acrylic base, fiberglass rod, a masonry drill bit, and epoxy.

Thanms everyone I'm pretty happy with it the tank size is the marineland 300 dd so I have a little advantage when doing the rockwork cause the tabks 36" wide
