[Jonathan G.]

just wondering where to get the best live rock and what you guys think is the best for your money.

This is from WRITMN: "have never bought Marshall before. I got tonga branch from www.vividaquariums.com Dave is a great guy and one of our sponsors. Look thru the sponsors links at the top of the page. You will find someone that stocks it. Remember that shipping will add quite a bit to the price. " The advice i got when i asked that question was to check out that website and look under the sponsers links too, HTH Jiddy

Jonathan - it depends on what you like the look of. You can check out LFS in your area and see what they carry. This will allow you to see the shapes of different types of live rock. Purchasing live rock locally may be a bit pricey. Ususally, buying online, the cost per pound is cheaper, however, remember to factor in shipping. Marshall Island live rock is really nice, Tonga, Kaelini, Figi, etc. You can also mix it up if you want. Were you thinking about curing the rock yourself (either in a separate tub, or in a new tank)? Check out the sponsors page, not only does Vivid (linked above) carry live rock, but Premium Aquatics, and others as well. See what everyone has available, and look at what will suit your needs the most.

Hope this helps
