Iv had 50 lbs of fiji live rock and now im geting 15 lbs of tonga branch rock. im going to upgrade to halids so now i wanto make my rocks so i have as much surface are as possible to have differnt types of corals mainly sps. Does anyone have tips on how to do this iv notice everyone has amazing looking sps tanks and i want mine to look that way. Also if i buy a frag of a acrop that has a plug on the bottom of it how would i stick it to the live rock?

my advice.............. ROLL UP THE SLEEVES AND GET WET!!! Its all in the eye of the beholder. I really dont think that there really is a "method" for stacking LR. you can do some LR racks to stack the rock on and that gives you a little more option just make srue that its stable so you arent dealing with any rock slides in the future. oh yeah and when your done.................POST PICS

Look at pictures ad see things you like in other peoples tanks and make adjustments to the way you like it. Use epoxy putty to glue the plug in place.

the live rock i got from the lfs was overnighted from fiji and was in his tank with alot of flow and skimmers for a week, he said he didnt have avyswings he guaranted it would be cured so he had it in his coral tank everything in there seemed fine i hope mine do good with it. i would post pictures however my camera is not new and im not smart with photoshop and resizing images
