hey guys. What would you recommend for bonding LR together to form different formation?.

Aquamend from HD has worked for me. Larger rocks - you can use a masonary bit, drill holes, and connect with acrylic rods.

second the aquamend.... Usually i use super glue gel to get them together then firmly press the aquamend into both rocks at the seem to make a VERY strong bond. Sometimes i cannot remove the aquamend later without chipping rock away.

I saw a thread a while ago where someone said he was using pieces cut from plastic coat hangers instead of acrylic rods. Haven't tried it myself (haven't put H20 in yet either), but thought it was interesting.
