Ok so previously I had obtained my rocks either from a LFS or from Marco Rocks. I wanted a different look. Also there are some posts that rumor the Marco along with the BRS reef saver can leak phosphate into the tank. Therefore I bought the Pukani 70 lbs (very light/porous), Tonga flat pieces 20 lbs and Tonga branching 20 lbs. Total 110 lbs. I know this is less than recommended but I wanted less in the DT and the Pukani is larger due to it's porousness. I will be adding some biological filtration bricks to the sump to help.

So I moved the delivery into the garage for unpacking:

All were packed in plastic bags surrounded by peasants.

I removed some peanuts and pulled out the bags.

Opened the bags to see what was sent.
