I am interested in seting up a rift aquarium and I am looking for some good ideas. It would also give people a chance to show off their tanks.

See my site (in my signature) for some pictures of my tanks. I think I only have 2 rift setups on there, but will be adding my previous setups to the archives.
Also check out http://www.malawimayhem.com. Have a look through thier member's gallery, there's TONS of pictures of people's Malawi tanks there.

What type of adhesive did you use to hold the rocks, if any? I like the look of rift tanks, good work!

a couple of the wobly rocks i used aquarium silicone to help keep them together, but for the most part they are just stacked on each other. When you stack them up just try moving them and use your own judgement on whether or not they need secureing, but it is always better to be safe than sorry, so if it is even questionable then silicone them together.
