I like to use threaded nylon rods with washers and nuts. You can drill the rock, run a dowl through it and fasten it to other rocks. In time the rods get covered with coraline and you never know they are there. This makes for a very secure rock formation.
I have also heard of using mortor or GreatStuff Pond & Stone Foam to hold them together. You'll have to google the mortor to see which is the right kind. I don't know off the top of my head.

I used 1/4 inch pipe pex from lowes.It is flexible and you can make almost any crazy shapes you want.I just made a couple arches for mine.Just drill the rock and slide the pex thru.
