If you drive out I'd be interested too. I'd be just as happy giving you the $20 instead of the USPS.

Maybe if get enough people interested they will give us a discount.

Marco is in MA. There website has an address. I think i might make the drive up sometime over thanks giving. I want to get some of there big stuff.

I know 3.50 sounds like a lot for dead rock but i don't know where else to get such big stuff. Any vendors out there have huge interesting stuff for that price range? If so PM i am interested.

My I plan to set up my tank in about 3 months and have a spare skimmer and light. I just have not found any place that sells such large nice piece. I know its possible to stick a bunch of smaller ones together but i am interested to see how nice there cherry picts really are especially if i am there select them my self and have the time to cure them.

I plan on a 150 gal. so was thinking i should start off with about 150 lbs. I i think they are quite light as they are dry.

I'll pass on the offer right now. I still don't have a tank.:eek: I'm planning on ordering my new Biocube 29g from Foster&Smith in the next 2-3 weeks. I was just looking around to find a good place for LR to save trouble finding it later in a hurry:splitspin
If anyone of you go there to check it out, please, let me (and other curious ones) know how did it go:tongueani

Reading the details it seems like this is manufactured rock that they aquaclture to convert it to live rock in there tank. They say they use different size grains and aragonite to produce a lightwright rock. So I think it would be cured and safe for the tank since you wouldn't have die off or hitchhikers but it isn't real rock. The question is how does it look?
