Anyone have LR in Syracuse?

jaybfresh · 07/27/2009, 06:00 PM

I have a tank laying around that I'm thinking of setting up as a FOWLR or pipefish tank. Need 40lbs or so of LR. Anyone got some extra??

if your going to do pipe's i'd use diy or dry base rock. hydroids can be an issue.

ABC Reefs carries Marco Rock, no Hydroids. I think @ $5.50 lb but I am sure Tim would cut a deal on quantities. They also have a bunch of the basic fiji, fully cured for $5.50 as well.

They also have the real good stuff!! The pieces are beautiful. I think it's like African or something. I may be completely wrong!

no they pull the rock from the top of mount Everest, you get the best pieces from there!

Actually I heard it was all from metorites. Something about space chemicals growing coraline better. I dont know for sure, I'm not a scientist
