    At one LFS it's $7 a pound, but it's not very good. The best live rock I've found around here is $9.99 a pound. Really adds up!

    Agreed Zach: 6-8 bucks here @ LFS & its really nothing special....your usual run of the mill. Thats why I got mine from BRS. I haven't tried Marco yet but his stuff looks good too. Can't beat BRS Pukani......cheap & awesome!!!
