Where can i buy base rock @

This is the last piece of LR that is overrun. Should save the blasto and throw the rock in w/the rest of cooking rock or... try to remove the algaes and save the gsp and zoas(they're kinda taking over the blasto) too?

I got bad hair algae :angry:so I'm gonna cook my rock along w/some reef bones I've got. 1. will the LR make the dry rock "live"? 2.Can I add reef bones to replace old rock in display? 3. Should I move corals/inverts to a frag tank of some sort in case of spike till everything is cooked? 4.do i...

Hey all, As most of you know I am starting to rebuild my tank. I took all the sand out this weekend and cleaned up the tank. What I am planning is a FOWLR, with a SSB. I am thinking something like 1.5" of sand. Does this sound reasonable? Also...I am not sure if I should re-use my sand...

Hey everyone. Im down in Miami and found a LFS that is selling baserock for $2.99/lb Is this a reasonable price? Are there places online with better deals? None of the LFS in my area carry it, and im not sure where else to look for it. Also, they have it in water. Is this normal? i...

Hi everyone, I recently switched over my 33 gal fresh tank to salt. I got a little carried away when buying $400 worth of live rock (and still want more). Here is what I have done, and what I wish to do. Maybe a few (or more) of you can give advice. Tank started April 25/07 Added (all by...
