Anybody else have any ideas?

Just use base rock for most of your rock work, and only a bit of live rock. It all turns to live rock quickly enough anyways.

That's a great idea! However isn't base rock sold for around $4 per pound? That's what J&L sells it for.

Why don't you use the Caribsea Reef Rocks? 50lbs is $74.95 at J&L. This works out to be approx $1.50/lb.

I might be able to help you out but I won't know for sure until Sunday.

Does anybody have any live rock they don't need? Preferably without pests ;)

I'm on a tight budget for the next few months so I'm only asking for small amounts (10-15lbs) but I'm just going to slowly build up to 130+lbs. Unless someone is willing to front me a large amount of LR on a deposit and I'll pay you in installments (sounds crazy I know...but if you don't ask you'll never know [img]smile.gif[/img] ). Thanks in advance.

Thanks! Take your time, I'm kinda broke right now anyway.

Hi,

I have a big, very nice Tonga rock (the one
that is 7.45$ per pound at J&L) that I want to
get rid of. Give me a day to weight it so I
can tell you how much do I want for it, but it's
going to be cheep.
