Diy Rock

Why Make Your Own Rock?
 The first mention I heard of Diy rock was in 2004 on www.3reef.com and it mentioned the use of different materials to make cheap rock. There was little information and even fewer had tried it. Most felt it was a way to beat the high price of live rock and that’s what initially drove me to it. While doing research on the new tank I was building, I decided I wanted to take as little from the ocean as possible. This Diy rock was the way to go. With the little information I found I made the first batch. Quite a bit has changed as aquarists have plenty of places to get info today.  Reef Central and GARF have threads and postings on making Diy rocks however the most exotic displays are found on www.cichlid-forum.com. This article is not an original work but a compilation of what I have read and the trial and errors I have made with my own rock. I included links at the end of this article but special thanks goes to InsaneReefer's thread on RC.
