Making live rocks


Recommended Posts

Just wondering if any reefers managed to successfully make live rocks with cement and coral sand. I've tried a couple of pieces but the finished rock was rather fragile and breaks easily. Maybe the sand & cement mixture is not correct. Any tips on how to do it successfully?

Can save a lot of money, is eco-friendly and don't have to worry about crabs, worms, etc. Only need to culture it with bacteria and coraline algea.

:thanks:

no... can make it porous by mixing biodegradeable stuff in it like rice or salt or something so that there would be pores in the Rock so that it will be light and porous..

You can actually buy limestone if you know where to buy ....as they made of calcium and magnesium compounds.... same stuff as the live rocks.

Cement abit troublesome though they come in different grade - some are more porous.

Let me know if you can find them ;)
