For me, mostly a diverse selection of nitrifying bacteria and mollusks. I also don't want a bunch of unchecked die-off polluting the rock with phosphate, and gumming it up with detritus.
Out of curiosity, what's the most important aspect of live rock to you Steve (sphelps)? Last edited by Myka; 12-16-2009 at 03:22 AM.

I'm not sure I see the appeal in mollusks but ok. As far as general bacteria goes ammonia levels wouldn't really affect that and the best way to remove "pollutants" is to eliminate everything that pollutes from the rock. I just don't see what the big fuss is about with this whole live rock thing. I'll take dead and clean any day over live.

Who cares?
Just buy the rock from wherever you want and let the vendors do what they want. It's the same as buying anything, if you don't like a product, don't buy it. Simple.

+1  BRAVO!How annoying what people bitch about on here and I wonder why I go on and off Canreef. I get especially annoyed when someone thinks they know best about everything. *rolling my eyes* Poor vendors. You can't paint every store with the same brush. Perhaps you should take a drive to some stores in Edmonton and Calgary. Otherwise thats just not right to say that. As said already...If you don't like the product, dont buy it. Simple.

I look at it this way if I'm going to buy Rock I'm going to go where there is the cheaper price, end of bitching, come on people support your local vendors if they arent doing it right thing teach them. Don't bitch about it fix it. wow too much complaining, until you have a head dollar of 100,000K to play with (zip it) its nothing worst then someone bitching to get posts or just to be heard. just to make a statement. sorry folks to many people here trying to make a name for them selfs. I understand that people can't make t he proper business or thatthey dont have enought money. But come on they are making a statment or trying to help out.. give them a chance.
