New Tank questions

[weyburnt]

I went out shopping today and have 4 t5 fixtures. Now I will need to fashion a canopy. But that wont be too hard. Another live rock question. The LFS, which unfortunatly is 100km away, and the only one that carries live rock, is stocking the aquascaped live rock. It seems pretty porouse compared to other live rock Ive seen, has some coraline algea, etc. However aparantly its coral skeleton or whatever that was put back into the ocean to re culture. They are asking 9 bucks a pound. Is this stuff as good as traditional live rock. Would I be better to have rock shipped from another supplier?

That's expensive, especially for aquacultured. I'd look at shipping in from other vendors.
