Looking for live rock

[danny zubot]

Anyone around the Kootenay's want to trade their live rock for frags? Or trade frags for other frags?

No one has any extra live rock they need rid of?

[FitoPharmer]

I do, if you ever come by Kamloops.

What is it like? Would it suck too much for you to ship some?

[Starry]

how much do you need Danny, and what sizes?

[FitoPharmer]

shipping is no problem. I have lots of different stuff, half cycled, half probably uncycled mostly smaller pieces of Fiji/ Indo pacific looking stuff. If you want i can send you some pics. only 5$ per lb or 4$ for real small stuff. I also have some good seeded base rock too, 2$ per lb. and by small i mean there is not any 120G show pieces left . Still lots of good size pieces for smaller tanks.

It's been a while since I've bought LR so I'm a bit at a loss for gauging the weight just by looking at the rock. I wanted to add about 3-4 nice peices to my main tank, and possibly some smaller rubble into my fuge. The pieces for the main tank I would hope to have about the size of a size 10 shoe......thats the first thing that popped into my head for comparison.
What do you think would weigh? If I'm having them shipped I would want to keep it close to the 20 lbs mark to avoid paying too much.

If you are able to add pics it would really help, if it isn't too much trouble.

I will weigh you up 18lbs or so of some nice looking pieces and take a picture to give you an idea on the quality, size, and amount. was 2lbs of rubble ok? more, less? As for guessing weight, all LR is different, you really have to just pick it up and feel it. In general, Older, more critter ravaged LR is usually way lighter due to the burrowing. But I have no idea if strong coraline coral growth could reverse that.

Ok sounds good. Can't wait to see the pics.

Just got the rock from Matt. Nice pieces! I found a couple of bristtle worms which I haven't hadin my tank for some time. I also saw a failry large crab in one hole. It has the same type of body as an emerald crab from what I can see, but it is cream color. Any ideas of what kind this could be? I couldn't see it's eyes so I don't know what color they are.

Anyway, thanks for the LR Matt. Both pieces are very nice.
