Anyone Needing more rock (Order Pooling)

Post by Brandon »

Was wondering if anyone is needing more rock and wanted to pool an order or two to save a few dollars. I am going to be stocking my new 120 soon, and will be ordering live rock. I was thinking of ordering from multiple locations, but will need a good bit. It might save on shipping, and reduced price to order the large boxes versus the small boxes.
So far the places I have been thinking about ordering from are:

Flying Fish Express - they have a sale on their Walt Smith Fiji right now.

Tampa Bay Saltwater - Seems to be a general consesus that this has lots
of critters, good and bad. Was thinking I would order the Gulf Live Rock, for the chance that there would be some hitchhiking corals.

Harbor Aquatics - Everyone says good things about how well the rock preserved on reefcentral.com. Sounded like good rock to add last as there would not be as much die off.

Premium Aquatics - Marshall Island, or someone else that carries it.

I think I would like a bit of variety in the shapes, that is one reason I am thinking of ordering different types of rock.

I am open for any suggestions.

Tank has been up 3 months and i just can't deal with 2 tanks right now. It has some coraline on different spot and covered with lots of different macro algae. I'm looking at $3 per lb for it. $150 for all of it. There is about 4 or 5 bigger size pieces and the others are softball size or a little bigger. It is all in my 26 gal tank just so you can get and idea of how much 50lbs is. Some of the pieces may have little frags of acros on since I'm moving my acros to the other tank and have to break a few off.
