Re: Live Rock

Premium aquatics, harbor aquatics, IMO they best rock companies.  Premium is slightly cheaper, and the rock is fully cured.  Cost me $323 for 90 pounds and a queen conch, with about $40 more for shipping from Premium.  Very good rock, plenty of bristleworms, copepods, amphipods, and alot of macroalgaes.   I have at least 5 types from this rock.  Jason is a great guy to deal with and will hook you up with the kind of rock you are looking for.  One thing, I received a large aptasia that I left to itself for several months and it reproduced horribly, I would get some kalk in case you get any on your rock.  Feeding any you get with boiling kalk will kill the anemones in short order.  You really shouldnt get any though.  The other place that looks promising is Dr. Mac, he has just started carrying rock but he has the fancy kinds for around $4 a pound INCLUDING shipping.     HTH Andrew  ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 2:19 PM Subject: Live Rock Has anyone bought Live Rock from FFE? Was it good quality? I was going to go to a local LFS store this weekend for LR, but think it might be slightly more cost effective to order it. Has anyone had any success with another company for LR? TIA, Tracy
