Does anyone have a DIY video of how to construct a rock wall? I want to build one in my 29 gallon biocube.

What do you mean by rock wall? Are you talking against the back of the aquarium?

If so, I can help. I don't have a video, but I can walk you through the steps.

Ya I want to do something up the back against the black part. Mr Cob gave me a suggestion but I'm always open to more. What's your idea?

I used egg crate as a foundation then mortared rock to it. Bunch of pics in my tank build thread. Plus Ben and I did a meeting about it this year.

Here is a threat from when I did mine a few years back. I also used egg crate, and used zip ties to tie the rock to the egg crate. I then used black pond foam instead of mortar to fill the gap between the stone. http://www.maast.org/showthread.php?56404-6-month-update-with-pics&highlight=phippsj
