    Hi everyone, im starting up a new system and thinking about purchasing about 50pds of vanuatu and 50 pds of bali alor. Thats subject to change based on the feedback I get. My questions are simple, what is everyones thoughts on where to get good quality, raw, uncured live rock for decent prices online? I want uncured so that it get the most life! I've thought about livestockUSA.com, anyone have any experience with them? If not what kind of experience did you have with who? Also, whats your opinion as far as the best rock {type} out there available right now? Thanks in advance!

    i got mine from liverockusa.com and they were awsome.... So much good stuff was on the rock. I am going to go back and get a few more pieces but you can't beat the price for what you get IMO

    the problem with most life is a lot of that life is pretty intrusive and undesirable...

    I'd recommend going with dry base rock over live rock.

    I got "raw" live rock from LIVEAQUARIA.COM and I love it!!! They have the best customer service in the industry.

    Peredhil has a point thought...it did take a long time for the rock to cure...but once it did, it was well worth it, great biodiversity!
