Hmmm, Im gonna definitely shop around. I think we might "double dip" and get our live rock from a variety of vendors to ensure a large biosphere in our tank. Hopefully this pays off if we get from reputable places. I just hope it doesnt also increase our chances of bad hitch hikers coming along... which I suppose will be inevitable. I think we're about 3 weeks away from purchasing some live rock still though. Just got the tank today:



Quite happy with it after cleaning it all off and what not. Quick question. Think its safe to store outside COMPLETELY under a patio that extends probably at least 6 feet in all directions around it for I think 7 to abolute maximum 14 days? Its slightly covered by a rubber tarp too but not completely. Anyone see any problems with this? Its out of the elements pretty good and weather is good for a while.

Anyways, keep the pointers coming, we'll definitely soak up as much info as we can. We're newbs but have been doing lots of reading about curing rock and cycling and everything so hopefully we do it right from the start.
