I do not believe that you really need to buy those critters out right.

However, buying a few lbs of live rock from an established tank should bring those beneficial critters to your sand bed.
Usually a friend or a near by reefer (WITHOUT MAJOR PESTS) would give you a cup of live sand and a few pieces of rubble (but live) rock for free.

I set up a 120g DSB 11mos ago. Within the first 3 monthsI got those critters just from adding FRAGS from other folks tank (just the small frag plugs and a few frags came on small sized rock).


Hope that helps.

I would have, but didn't think you would want to drive/train all the way to BK.

If you want to then sure!

I do not have rubble rock, but could give you a rock that has 1 green mushroom on it, and a cup of live sand no problem.
