    just resting on each other, I put lots of force on the rocks and it does'nt move, seems to be pretty stable. You think thats good enough or do I need to secure it better.

    my mexican turbo snail loves to move rocks.. the sucker is HUGE tho.. he's about the size of a tennis'ball... I glued all my new stuff and made sure that the base is nice and snug under the sand.

    just my 2cents!
    good luck tho!!!!

    I like it! Looks great. Lots of hidey-holes for all of your future creatures. Good job!
