He ya'll (Don't ask me why I sound southern. I'm waay too tired right now)!

I just sold the last of my LR and I'm about to start converting my former reef tank turned 94 DEGREES OF PIPING HOT WATER tank of DEATH into my very first fish only tank. I really like the clean look of white coral skeletons on a black background (I know thats blasphemy around here) with a few fish swimming around. I was wondering if anyone here knows where I can find some NICE, TALL pieces around Socal (I live in Glendale, so somewhere nearby would be best).

I also don't mind using branching live rock or dead rock, but again I'm looking for tall pieces as my tank is 24" tall and is a hex. Most branching LR I've come across seem to all be broken up already and in small pieces about 6"-10" long.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Paul

Oh and if you know of any places online as well, that'd be great!

I sometimes consider a fish only tank. When I did have a fish only tank with dad coral I just remember algae growing on the coral skeletons and it just looked dirty. I'd have to sun bleach them every couple of months.

Sorry I'm no help. Good luck. Post some pics when you're done. FIsh only tanks are just as cool as reef tanks IMO.

Thanks laverda, but I'm looking for something about 15" - 18" in height that's not too wide, as I have a hex tank. The first one you have is nice but I'm looking for something a tad differnrt. Thanks though
