Anybody ordered live rock online before?? Setting up a new tank and looking for the best deals, i don't know if it would be just cheaper going through my lfs. Feedback would be awesome! Thanks

It would be cheapest to go through your local reef club for live rock.
I got mine from SeaLife Inc and it is an awesome rock.

If I have to start again, thought, I would probably get some dry rock from BulkReefSupply:

and seed it with a piece or two of live rock from a local reefer.

I just ordered from Liveaquaria.com and delivered for a 45 lb premium fiji box it was $3.60/lb...including freight. (they have a sale this week)

I can't get that locally for that price. But, like someone said, you can't pick it out...you gets what they ships.

Good luck! Chris

+1 on lfs, if u order online, u will get some useless boulders..but if u do order online, try some marco dry rock, it has a great looking texture..

Marco seems to be the place to go for good rock
