I was thinking about holey rock too. I found a HUGE piece at my lfs. Its like 22l X 16w X 16t. Its something like 50 lbs
I really like larger river rocks for a peacock/hap tank but they take up so much room so holy rock would be my next choice. Make sure you do a little research, if your putting alot of big heavy rocks in your tank you need something to spread out the weight like eggcrate.
I prefer less rocks in my Hap/peacock tanks. Mbunas and Tangs need caves Haps and Peacocks like to cruise the med-upper areas of the tank.
i put some of the lighting grid stuff on the bottom before the sand (pfs) to help distribute the weight. I plan on only putting 5-6 larger or different shaped pieces reguardless of river rock, holey rock, ect.

yup the larger ones need room to swim ,and the less dominant ones need room to swim away ... as far as rocks i used roundish river rocks just for looks
