Default Mother of all Rock/Sand/Salt Orders

Hey Everybody

Couple people know about this, and i finally have a tentative date set, so time to see how many we can get in on this.

The wife and i are heading to Invermere for a week right after thanksgiving, then going to swing through vancouver with a little stop at J&L. We're looking at picking up the morning of oct 19th or 20th then dead heading back to edmonton. Depending on how much we get in on this, we either have a yukon to fill, or a 3/4 ton truck.

So, anybody that needs live rock, buckets of salt, or bags of substrate, anything thats too heavy to ship, nows the time to go for it.

Lets see how low we can get the price on rock down to.

we'll have the date set for the stay in invermere tomorrow, then ill contact J&L and see when they're getting anymore rock in and we can start putting holds on it.

have fun everybody

Josh

Would be great if you could pick up one 160g bucket of I/O for me. If you want advance payment (I'd prefer if you did), please PM me.

Thanks!

ill call over and get a group order going under my name at J&L as soon as i can confirm our vacation spot morrow.

then anybody that wants anything can just call over, mention my name, give their list and pay for their part, then ill just haul it back. get receipts when i load and know who gets what at pickup. think this would be the easiest way

and for anybody thats curious, im located by the home depot/superstore on 127th street and 137th avenue

Hi,

How much live rock are you guys picking up? I may be interested in a small amount if the price goes down to $3.99/lb!

Thanks.

Be aware that the chance of J&L having 8+ boxes of rock in stock will be slim to none. Most of their large rock orders have always been "pre-order". And they do usually sell out. Check by phone before you make any large rock purchasing plans.

Just got off the phone with them

Anybody that wants in, give J&L a call, ask for Jeff, tell him your in on the order being picked up by Josh Edwards, give them your list, and they'll take down your info. They've got a note under my account so there shouldnt be any problems.

This includes everybody that has contacted me up to this point. Still need you to call J&L and give them your order yourselves. Just leave a note in the thread here so i know about how much im bringing back

if something should come up, feel free to call me or have J&L call me for any details, 780-953-5311.

Cutoff for Live Rock for this order im picking up is Monday, October 4th. So anybody wants anything you gotta call them and reserve/pay/whatever by then.

I'm in for about 160-200lbs of Fiji. I think Jess wanted about 60lbs. And i might need rubbermaids or coolers for hauling peoples rock back. Can keep the rock submerged and warm for the ride home and preserve some of that life on it, just dont want to soak the upholstry in the yukon if we're takin that one

And one last little note, our personal vacation to invermere is off. Aliens must have visited my house the last couple nights and got a few fish in the mood. Got a few spawns to look after now so we wont be disappearing for a week. 3 days to vancouver wont be a problem, got a brother to come and change water

this means the date is a little more flexible, maybe do pickup on the 22nd so everybody has friday night/saturday free to come and grab their stuff.

Hows this for everybody?
