They have no website, sort of a huge mom and pop operation.

So, Whatigot, does that mean your tank is cycled and ready for livestock?

BTW, Pet Zoo in Langely has nice Indonesian live rock that came in a week ago. Very nice. I paid $6.49/lb as a member of BCAquaria.

It certainly looks that way.
Gonna test every day this week and if all stays within parameters, I'm going to start stocking livestock (fish first, coral later).

I got my LR from King Ed's & also from a fellow Canreefer's large sump setup.

All LR was fully cured & my cycle happened really quickly.

Everything was nicely full of life & the only uncertain thing being a purple crab. It looks like a mithrax crab so I'm leaving him be... for now!

King Ed's had a good selection & I took my time to hand pick some pieces.

They've got Fiji, Jakarta, Cuban mostly cured but have some partly cured & non cured.

I bugged them for a discount & paid $5/lb for Fiji

how much do you usually need to buy in order for King Ed's to cut you a discount?

ill be looking for roughly 50lbs for my display or possibly a bit more (can always chuck it in the sump)
