What a great thread, gj on the fake rocks. I was planning to do some fake rocks myself with tilegrout but I wanna switch to epoxy putty now for sure! Too bad I can't find any aquarium grade epoxy putty here in the Netherlands

Keep up the good work!

Thanks Saffy....tile grout is still a viable option....Not sure if there are any epoxy products like Zoopoxy over the pond....

Don't wanna hijack, but you are the reason I started using this stuff James lol. Here are two rocks, the larger one was first attempt the smaller is the second attempt. Used a bit more material on the second.

The 2 gallon kit is $140 shipped to me....The rest is relatively cheap....The great stuff foam and the open cell foam was may be $20....The pvc tubing that is the core of the stump was $8.

The rest is just my time and thankful talents....luckily my brain and hands seem to be in sync.

Some roots colored up.....

I would like to add to the appreciation for this product. I am really liking the results you can achieve with it. I also want to thank James, seeing him play with the 307 is one of the reasons I decided to give it a try on my newest build myself.

Here are some pics of what I was able to create using both Polybac 307 and the 307 Lite. I also use the thickening agent that Polygem sells to adjust the consistency of the epoxy to almost clay like.

The fallen tree and the rock work in the foreground are epoxy.
