Try rob over at Red C Aquariums. Its a bit far from you but last I was in there he had a lot of nice live rock. Not sure what the price is though.

i called he wants 7.99 a lb looking at this site thou any thoughts Walt Smith Fiji Premium Live Rock Scleractinia sp. per lb

 

[senji]

so its between fiji "tukani" Fiji Tukani Live Rock or "totoka" Fiji Totoka Live Rock 50 Lbs which do u all prefer?

I have found that the more you go to a LFS and talk and buy from them the more the price drops. That might be how you are hearing of "Amazing deals". I have bought from fellow hobbiest and thats where the real deals are but I have also bought from stores.

I think seeing the rock is worth the extra few bucks. Online you have no idea of what shapes and sizes you will get and how it will work in the tank. Just my 2cents

In the begining 45lb would not be a bad starting point IMO. I started with 50lb in a 125 gallon. As you incrase your bioload you can add more rock.

sumner man! Tropical fish world usually has it for 4.99-8.99....not the greatest but cheapest, also wild side on canyon by my place! Better quality rock imo. Dry rock online is cheap and comes with no hitchhikers!

3.99 at indoor reef. Now at josh's house. Tons and tons of all sorts of rock.
