I already have 50 lbs of base rock for the tank. And I guess I just need some suggestions on how to arange or stack the rock in the tank. Like, how do I create a stable structure that isent going to fall (and shatter the tank and have it all over the basement floor) ? I went out and bought some pvc pipeing because someone said to use that to hold the rock in place, however, I am sure there is more to it than that..

any suggestions? I dont know where to begin or have any idea of how to design this tank...

its a 150 gallon.
first off is this a new tank? meaning, are there any critters in it?

If your worried about the rocks crashing down your best bet is to get clear acrylic rods and drill the rocks than stack them like that.

You can also try the putty they use for mounting frags to rock, it dries hard and some people have used it for their rock works.
