Do any LFS in Austin sell live rock and sand? If so which ones. Thanks in advance

Take a look here http://www.maast.org/stores.php most probably do.

Most of the LFS carry live rock, but you may be better off asking folks here to donate a cup of sand from their tanks to help seed your sand bed. Adding a bag of Aragolive to "dead" sand you get at an LFS wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Also check with Monica at www.oceanhomesetc.com . She's in College Station but she usually can get rock to you in Austin and from what I have seen has good prices and selection of different rock varieties. Monica logs on here as well.

Austin to Franklin is about 2.5 hours or so. I looked after Gary posted the link and they have some great prices. I am sure that I will be ordering stuff sone as I go to College Station frequently that I can order and pick up and save a little on shipping. Plus I know how it was handled(big plus for me).
