No problem. These rock walls are always fun to build. Hopefully tomorrow I will have the first coat of concrete on.

I haven't tested exactly how strong it is but I can say it is way stronger than an exo-terra background. The foam I use is very dense and hard as well. I can make it almost as big as I want.

No problem. I like building these so I may make a bunch more. I have an epic build in mind with my 40 gal breeder aquarium over the next little while. Stay tuned!

Yeah it looks really good. What type of cement did you use? I have a bunch of styro laying around here for such an occasion and just haven't gotten any cement yet.

I use the ready mix Quickcrete from home depot. It has large pebbles in it so I just sift them out with a screen.

That rock wall looks really nice! I was wondering how much you would charge to make one for me? I need it for a 20 gallon long. Pm if you can. Thank You
