I am new and have tried to get my rock work and soft corals in place but can not seem to get it right. If someone could come out to my house and take a look at my tank I would compensate them. Please email me at mailto:rickdrinkwater@bellsouth.net">rickdrinkwater@bellsouth.net</a>. Thx you!

What size tank and pics?

If your having trouble with getting the rock to look a way that is pleasing to your eye, then relax, take breather, and try it again...it will come to you. I have messed with my LR over and over before it finally was pleasing to MY EYE. There is no specific way to stack rock...just let it flow man (in my Cheech and Chong voice).
 
It is a RSM 130 a 34 g. My thing is I tried too re arrange it on sun and it came out bad. I am having problems with the the medium sized soft corral attached to rocks getting them in place and to stay. I will post some pics asap
 
Super glue gel for the corals or epoxy

But it is not stable the mushroom in front is just there and I feel it will all come crumbling down anytime now. I tried using Aquastick epoxy and it sucked! I just can't get to be stable.
 
Here is how you get it to stay. Take the rocks out for a fresh start and use what I like to call "the super glue sandwich"

Take a rock, load down an area with super glue GEL (key that it's gel) then, put some of that putty on to the super glue, and then top it off with more super glue.. you should have a glue-putty-glue sandwich. Take the next rock, and squish it down on top of that..

solid as a rock
