Currently at 1.8ml VSV mixture. Should hit peak soon, NO3 is almost nil, then cut back to maintenance.

Well, my new rock showed up today, and mostly disappointed. I have 2 full boxes of baseball sized rocks. I think there are 3 rocks between the boxes that I can use
All very nice rock if I had a 20g tank, but I can't build any kind of structure with it. I'm calling it rubble. Anyone thinking of getting fresh rock, don't order Walt Smith Premium, unless you need a box of baseballs. Very unhappy right now and not sure where to go from here.

Ya, exactly my thoughts. Not a good year for me. Now I'm out many hundreds of dollars and stuck with a bunch of rock I can't use.

No idea. It's ridiculous. Probably 30 rocks in a 50lb box. Should have been 7 or 8, specifically asked and was told yes, I'd get large pieces. To fully cover how I'm feeling right now, I'd have to go disable the language filters!

I can't say this is all round, some nice shapes, but mostly 2lb or less in size. Perfect for smaller tanks I guess, but useless for me. Now I'm stuck with almost 90 pounds that I can't use.

Wow.. I can almost feel your frustration from here. I would be PO'ed too! This hobby is hard and expensive enough as it is.. but when they send you a box that's hundreds of dollars worth of lemons.. well, #$# ^$%#$ @#*& #@$%?!@# $ !
