Christy, if you buy other reefing stuff from that LFS, maybe ask them to do a partial refund, keep some credit there for future purchases & use the rest to come into the Lower Mainland to snag the rock you need at cheap prices now. That way they get future business, and you get your LR & save money. Just explain that you need the rock asap, but can get other stuff from them later.

I wonder if you can get a price adjust like at the bay? My wife says a lot of stores do that actually.

Whoo Hoo!
Are you going bare-bottom again? Are you using some of the rock from the 90g?

Yep bare bottom and I'm using all of the rock from the 90. The 180 only has 60lbs in it so far. 60lbs sure don't look like much, I'm wondering if I should supplement it with some of that dry stuff. Then again maybe it will look alright once I get the rock from the 90 in there.

Yeah, good idea. See what you've got first, I'm sure you'll come up with an awesome reefscape!
