From a bio-diversity point of view, I've yet to see any rock that compares to LR.com. It just takes too long to get the rock from Fiji to here...too much stuff dies on the way.

I kept a maroon in my 30 gallon for about 4 years. He never grew very large, maybe 2" at the most. It's been 8 years since I had one and I've just purchased a new one last week.

It is possible the "low" readings you were getting were due to the fact that you had just gone through a precipitation event. That would have removed a lot of Ca/Alk from the system (I think).
