AW carries both Tonga and Fiji LR. Most LFS only carry Fiji. Other than that it comes down to price I think. I have had friends tell me that they have gotten uncured LR from Alamo that caused their tank to crash. Apparently they sold it the the same day that it came in.

This was a newbie and put the rock into a 20 gal. That's a series of events that are a recipe for disaster. Most experienced folks would have been able to tell by the appearance and smell.
