I'm a sucker for a nice rock....

I've been watching this rock for many, many moons across the fence in the neighbours' yard..... it was right in the corner serving no purpose other than closing a hole in the fence..... I finally had the guts to confront him promissing to close the hole.... if I can have the rock.... He had no clue what rock I was talking about and agreed.....

I am now the proud new owner of ...... a rock!.... (actually... this rock is not very photogenic.... looks a lot better in real life)

 

Very nice rock. Is the screw there to keep the rock in place? he he. It looks alot like a piece of the moon. Craters etc. What are your plans for this rock? Can look great for a background. Almost a Grand Canyon feel. I like.

 

The screw is merely to indicate the relevance of size..... my plan is to do some serious scaping in my 5ft when I move to KBY in November......I cannot wait to use it......

 

So if I estimate around 40cm is that correct?

 

Nice rough surface to root some java fern on

Congrats on your new rock!! lots of nice texture

 

Will work nice for something like this : http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/82384/one-way-to-attach-mini-fissidens-on-the-rock-or-carpet

 

that is a great link, thanks - would love to try that one

 

I,m going to have everyone hide their rocks from me when I visit..... had my retirement farewell yesterday at the boss's house and saw this rock sticking out..... almost overgrown.... but I saw it and started to make a nuisance of myself hinting for it...... It was given to me when I left......

I won't disclose this to my wife, but it is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen...... Cant wait to scape my tank when I get to my retirement home in 2 weeks...... (It is about 30cm high)

 

Insert some funny line here about retirement and rocks...

Looks great.
