What can I put to fill the empty space in my tank.

[soccerbo24]

My 29 gallon tank is currently cycling with 26 pounds of live rock. And 30 pounds of live sand my tank look pretty empty with only 26 pounds of rock I don't wanna spend to much but I want to make the tank look more full what can I add to make it look more full without breaking the bank. And where can I find it add? Please help!

You can buy lace rock from some fish stores. It is porus and will turn into live rock over time in your tank.

As folks around here will tell you, I am pretty old school, and prefer my FOWLR tanks with 1 lb of rock/gallon. I then fill the empty space in the tank with fish - what a novel idea

I don't know about anybody else but I found some large, odd shaped, porous rocks in my yard. I scrubbed them all down with clean water, no soap, to get any dirt off them then bleached them in the sun for at least 2 weeks. turning them every couple of days to make sure I killed any organisms that might be living in them. Then arranged them in my tank. It's been almost 2 weeks that they've been in there and all my fish are healthy and all my water tests are good. Just sayin
