Take a look in the sponsor forums. Marco rocks is one of them. They had a contest this month on aquscaping using Marco rocks, so there are lots of pictures.

I'm also upgrading to a 180 and am just in the process of doing my rock work with Key Largo rock. I just love it.

about 5 months ago when it was new. Theres 100 lbs of Marcorocks and about 80lbs of cured live rock.


Today


Not a great picture of the rock itself. I am pretty pleased with the rock. I did battle a really bad case of hair algae for about 2 months or so. Dont know if it was the rock or just part of being a fairly new tank.

most likely it was due to being a fairly new tank.

P.S. Your rockwork looks awesome.

Awesome. Thank you for the pictures. I just ordered 50 pounds. I know it's not enough, but I have around 80 already. Maybe I'll get some for christmas. =)

I purchased 100 lbs of Key Largo + using 100 lbs from my 75G upgrade. Hopefully it's enough. I'm going for a more open look with islands. About 40 lbs is actually in my sump. I'm still deciding on FOWLR vs. reef. The 75 was a reef.
