Live Rocks in NYC ?

Hi

New to this board, learn a lot here. I am planning to start a new 30 gallon tank.

Does anyone know where I can get some good live rocks to cycle the tank. I went to a few shops near my home (brooklyn ) and the rocks don't look too bright. I am assuming there are no live or any kind of hidden treasures in these rocks.

Any LFS in NYC where there are tons of stuff to look at.

thanks again.

Welcome to MR, keep an eye on the vendors forums and the for sale forum for live rock that comes up for sale. It happens frequently.
