I thought I saw on this site instructions on using silicon to make little footies for a a pump. Can't find it now and am at that point in my plumbing. Can someone help? Thx in advance.

    I've been thinking about doing that with some of the base rock that I bought. Maybe I'm overly concerned, but pointy rock parts on glass seems like a bad combination.

    Bright, Someone here mentioned to me to put down egg crate and then rock... Food for thought. I was happy I did, one of the smaller pieces of rock moved and it fell onto the egg crate and cracked a piece of it, but, no discernible damage to the tank at point of impact. Will see soon enough, Water fill operations commence today.
