I won't argue with your nearly 15000 posts, obviously time well spent. All I was saying is that using properly prepared dry rock is a cheaper method that is better for the environment and less likely to introduce pests. Obviously the original poster agrees to some extent. Don't get your tighties in a bunch man

Clearly you're new here

And nothing is in a bunch, just expressing my opinion. I do that a lot. Nearly 15,000 times, in fact.

I'm just willing to bet, that in 95% of the cases, if J&L offered premium live rock from the real ocean for the same price as dry quarry rock, people would take the real rock.
It's a price thing, and I get agitated by all the made up excuses about pests and the environment. We're not in a "care about the environment" kinda hobby. And anytime I've pressed the topic, the pressee eventually admitted it was solely based on money. Perhaps you're a purist and really believe all of your own post, but if so, you're a rare one.

Exactly. Just not sure how to sell them the idea. And really, my tank probably needs to be rebuilt before adding anymore frags, I used dead rock and it's all messed up -lol

I didn't really mean this post to turn into a debate of live vs not live.

Was just stating my disappointment in the rather vague response I got.
It made me feel as a customer that my business wasn't important, and that they were unconcerned about losing a potential long term customer.

Yes we derailed your thread, sorry. As a new consumer they could have provided a better answer I agree. Nothing happens fast in this hobby, at least nothing good. J & L is good don't write them off from one bad answer.
Good luck I hope you find some rock.
