lol.....ok....truth is... she took the marta because I had a tennis match I had to complete by that morning.....not all because of fish....haha.....of course i threw in the fishy business plug when I picked her up and I said...."yeah....for your sea horses (she is the one that egged me on to do sea horses)........"
ok so it might have been some where in my ulterior motive section of the brain.......I took her out to a nice lunch....does that off set what I did?
I maintain that there is some genius in my ways.....

Looks pretty........bad.
My girlfriend actually invited herself over Thursday and Friday, the two days I intended to devote entirely to finishing the aquascaping. What could I say?
We can't even agree on the spacing for planting petunias in her yard without a half hour debate. Here's a brief excerpt of how my next two days will go:
I'll have my orange and blue, space gloves on; my hair hanging in my eyes; my feet wet from dripping saltwater; and oh yeah, nature will start calling the minute I put my hands into the tank.
She'll be sitting on the couch repeating the following in a closed loop:
"Try moving that bottom rock a bit to the left. No. Back a bit to the right. Just a little more...more....more.... Perfect! Now try turning it so it points to the front just a little bit more..."
"I think that rock on the top would look so much better on the bottom. Don't you think so?"
"Is this hobby too stressful for you? Maybe you should try gardening."
Serenity NOW!

Linda, I've seen that done in a couple of pictures. If done right it can look very nice, almost like the rocks are floating above the sand.
I've always wanted to drill the underside of the base rocks and epoxy threaded nylon bolts to hold the rocks up off the sand.
I might give it a try on this one.

i did something like that a long time ago in a FW tank and I loved the look of it....you could place smaller rocks to hide the PVC....I also painted them black to really hide them well.....It was a really cool looking little cave....
