Hey Quin,
Just so you know, I only started with 20 pounds of live rock in my 180, and when you saw it, it was merely 2 months old, and already tons of coraline algae. The other 250-280 pounds of rock in there was "dead" live rock. I bought it off of a guy that had to move and it was all live rock before but was sitting in stagnant saltwater for 2 weeks. It was all white when I got it. I didn't even boost my alk/calcium levels up...it just takes a little bit of patience. Hope this helps.. Des

You're right I can't find it either, I would email them and ask them about it, it was on their last website, perhaps they missed it this time around.

As has been mentioned, if you start with base rock, or Tufa and seed it with some live rock it will all eventually become live rock. This is essentially how live rock is aquacultured for sale at your LFS. What you will need is lots of patience. As Beverly noted, that and experience come with age.
 You will have to add bioload very, very slowly while your rock grows, although it may be very cool to slowly watch your reef develop, basically from scratch.

lace rock
Big Al's has this stuff called Lace rock. Its going for about 2.50 per lb. He said the rock is inert and should be no problem. Any info from you guys would be helpful. i right now cannot afford live rock. So I'm going with some LR, some crushe coral from tigger, and some maybe lace rock or tufa rock. I only need about 15 lbs.
Ps. I also would like some new life for my sand bed. any ideas. Thanx George Muller
