    Sorry dude but I wouldn't use any of it either. Personally, if I ever want any base rock, I don't even go to the store, I use John at reefcleaners.org. I know the rock is A+ quality, is fully cured/ready to go, looks amazing, and is very porous. The shipping cost is no concern to me because of the quality of his products and service.

    +1 John's rock is the best quality and is reasonably priced also, I will never order BR from anyone else.

    I agree with you that the rock from reef cleaners looks far superior to what i got(ripped off). But i live in Canada and the shipping and over the border issues would make it quite more expensive but was wondering if there was anywhere here(Toronto) i could find it.

    well im glad i didn't add it to my DT tank or i would have been a fool. i went back to that crap fish store and spoke with the manager, he tried to tell me the rock was switched around by the customers and they had no way to control it yet it was their employee who pointed me to that particular rock saying it was reef safe, in the end the a** wouldn't give me a refund because i didn't have a receipt too. i lost it in the past two weeks i dunno. so i just dumped the wet loose rock on his counter and left, i have no garden, so no use for it.
