Who makes the best "flat" clean cut dry shelf rock? What size acrylic rods?

I need advice on shelf rock, size of acrylic rods to stack the rocks, and best glue, epoxy, cement, etc...to bond the rocks.

Also, is it better to use diamond coated drill bits for hard rock??

Marco Rocks com for flat cut rocks and cement
3/8" clear acrylic or 1/4" fiberglass driveway rods
JB water weld epoxy
Regular cheap cement bits work because reef rock is generally pretty soft

+1 for Marco. Be sure and get their cement. Once you use it you will never go back to glue.
