If I were to order some rock from them.....a couple types, should I expect to be happy with what I received? Thanks.

From Ocean Aquatics or J&L?

[Funky_Fish14]

Either. I guess I should have been more specific. Thanks.

Ocean Aquatics - I picked up about 30 lbs of Fiji from them a few weeks back. Fully cured and healthy. I was at JL earlier that day and wasn't overly impressed with the rock they had on hand, but then again it was poorly lit.

I will definately be going back to OA, customer service is incredible.

If you would like, I can send you some pictures of Jakarta rock I just picked up yesterday from Ocean Aquatics. I was really impressed with it, and as previously mentioned, amazing customer service.

I have a few of the pics in the "pictures" forum.

Cheers,

Chad

i was told by the guys at OA that they supply live rock to j&l so it's really the same stuff all around.

edit: i think i actually misunderstood them, they sometimes purchase from the same supplier as J&L. sorry for any misunderstanding.

I bought 65 lbs of uncured fiji from JL about 6 months ago. Some nice big pieces. After 6 mos. I have tons of featherdusters on it, sand polyps, and now 90 percent purple coraline. I also picked up 30 lbs of vanuatu LR for a little more shape.

Im over on Van Isle so this will be a day trip thing.
Is ocean aquatics worth the detour?
If i judged soley by there website i whouldnt bother, but is the store more impressive?

OA is definitely worth a look. It isn't a detour if you take the swartz bay ferry, it is like 15 minutes from the boat at tsawassen. Really handy for picking up frags on the way home!
