OK then - can we fill a box with Fiji rock you think, along with everything else?

well the box size for figi is 50pounds, and i am in for 10-20 (depending on $$)....how much is everyone else getting?

I think I said up to 10 pounds, and a Royal Grama. It just seems to take forever before we get anything going that a person forgets what he wanted. I am beginning to think I will say "to H*** with it", and go in with Ross.

I was looking for ~10 lbs as well, but have to look into a local deal first. The other things were a shrimp, a crab, a small fish...

Too bad about the branch rock. I wonder how this will affect their supply - might the storm have piled up a whole new rim of broken pieces around the reef, ready to collect? I guess the infrastructure might be in pieces, but those islanders seem quite resilient, having dealt with storms for generations.

does anywhere in calgary have any good rock at the moment?

Is this the storm that wiped out a few villages a few weeks back? I heard entire coastal villages were literally wiped away by the storms, luckily there were no casualties (this is what I heard anyways).

For for rock... Umm ... I don't think I'm in for any rock this go-round. Lack of funds, mostly (got hammered by my CC bills this week), but also was really only primarily interested in the branchy stuff... However, I am still in for the other potential things, so just let me know when I need to get my order with them finalized. All I'm really after are more snails, perhaps a shrimp or two, and if by some miracle that they have a pink acro millepora I'd be in for that.

As to the cyclone - this one (Ami) is from just a few days ago.

As to the rock, there's none local that I know of - not feasible for the LFS to get the good stuff in?? Go figure - 12 dollars per lb of base rock... Woo!

I was checking on a guy selling his tank - another local dead end.

I would be probably interested in some rock - 10 lbs - and some snails and such. Previous orders for rock been good quality?
