if you could go with dry base rock then reefcleaners.com would be the best for dry base rock. plus you dont have to worry about pests and hitchhikers. its only like 2.60 an lbs i think. oh crap. i dont know what tufa is. sorry. but if its just live rock you want then this is the place.

Sure, just make sure it is sterile before placing in the tank. I usually soak in a bleach solution for several hours and then in a dechlorinator for a day or so. I would use it for base rock only, but that's just me. (probably not going to look very natural)

Yeh I understand about keeping parameters correct to stimulate the coraline to spread, I'll have to stay on top of things. They said that the rock is mined 30 miles inland from an ancient reef site. I figured it would be more dense than regular live rock so I ordered 50 pounds for my 29 gallon. I will still get some good live rock pieces to put in with it but the live rock is $10.00 a pound in Nashville so I won't get a lot of it....

as long as the gha is thin, the turbo snails will devour it...dont you worry and they are cheap. Just keep an eye on them cause they will not right themselves if they fall on their backs.

Don't feel the need to purchase ALL live rock. It may cycle a little faster, but you may run run into several nuisance problems. You can save A LOT of money and problems by going with mainly base rock, and a little live rock. I started with about 150 lbs of base rock from Bulk Reef Supply at less than $3 a lb and only 10lbs of live rock. Its only been 3.5 months and the base rock is really ...

Dry base rock question Ok, so I can get my hands on some nice fiji dry base rock locally. It's basically the stuff that marcorocks sells, but up here in Ontario. Question is this...how does using this rock affect the cycle process? I'll be using about 20-30lbs of live rock out of my current well established setup, and about 20-30lbs of the base rock. I will also be using ...
