DIY Fake Rocks

Thanks Lee. I used to drive around on my motorcycle and take pictures of
cool rock formations and try to reproduce them at home. It's a fun hobby
when it's too hot to do anything else outside.

Sam - you're a man of many talents! Those actually look real! I suppose
though - after digging your lake - you probably had a lot of stone to use
as
"inpiration", huh? Really nice work!

It's pretty easy. Make a bunch of test rocks first though because it is
something that takes practice. Check out all the concrete aquarium
backgrounds I made:

Hi -

Still pondering about my waterfall. (1) Anyone with experience making
fake
rocks? I've got a book or two, is it as easy as they make it sound?
(2)
I've read about chicken wire and concrete approach, and the expanding
foam
approach. Any comments? (3) Doing ANYTHING involving chicken wire
on
top
of the liner sounds like trouble to me, comments? (4) All these
concrete
fake rocks, same issues with alkalinity as concrete in the pond
itself?

A ton of questions, but the fake rocks thing is sounding like a good
option.
But a realistic option?

Thanks!
