    Good morning team,

    Beginning stages of the rebirth of my 100G cube. It sat empty for about 3 years but I've been rebuilding slowly for a couple of months. Finally I got to dry-rockscaping and I just cannot decide on a good rock structure design!

    This tank ran for 4 years but it had some issues that I'm trying to fix this time around. I've enlarge the sump with an oversized top off and I'm also positioning the tank so I can climb up on all sides of it. The lights will also be on ceiling sliders so they can be pushed back and out of the way.

    Any feedback would be appreciated :)

    Welcome back to the addiction. What are you using for rock?

    It's dry rock I've had for ever. Used in multiple set ups in the past . I spent months cleaning and preparing it

    I am in the same boat, working on and designing a scape. I am using underwater epoxy and superglue gel (thick). I need to add more support and go back and glue more points of contact. What are you using?
    If able I would use rods but I have no drill bits designed for that.
