that's what im hoping for. what i think ill do is set up the tank and mod it the way i want, then leave it empty...im in no rush, so hopefully a good deal happens upon me. when and if that deal arises, i will jump on it, instead of rushing everything and ending up with subpar live rock.

king ed's, although im not a fan of a lot of their livestock, DO seem to have some very nice saltwater critters, fish, and live rock.

is it a good idea to buy all your LR at the same place at the same time? or if you see a really nice piece, but dont want to pay 9$ a pound, could you always just get a coupe of pieces that tickle your fancy?
