All Ive ever used is MarcoRock.... One of the best things you can do IMO....

My first attempt at SW was a Biocube 29g, and I used Marco Fiji.....

I then somehow managed to talk my sister in law into ditching her old 75g freshwater setup in favor of a new 90g SW setup... So of course we used Marco Fiji again....

Now of course you can tell in the signature that Im building another new tank, its a 90g starfire rimless, Just added Marco Key Largo tonight.... Need to do a little work in the AM with epoxy and some acrylic rods to get a few more arches in it, but so far its looking GREAT.

I was a little worried about the Key Largo not being as nice as the Fiji, but it is GREAT rock....

While I hope this is my last build for awhile, if I do another tank, I can guarantee you I know what rock will be going in before the water...

I purchased 50 pounds of key largo rock and received 55 pounds. I love it and really glad I bought it.

Well, i got my 150#'s in and my fiancee talked me into building an arch. After doing some research I used a combo of waterfall foam and z-poxy resin to cover up the foam. This is the out come.

Thanks All!

Do my pictures above count towards this GC, or should I repost the pictures ???

This is the only time it's better to come in second place.

I actually started getting some of the coral over into the 90 rimless....

It wasn't meant to be first prize and second prize.
More like first drawing and second drawing ...

If we have already won once, is it possible to win again? I want to post up my new aquascape to enter, and I want to try and get some more rock for my new tank too, so hopefully I'll have another chance??
