As payment for some work performed, I received about 500 lbs of Rock. This was live rock and in a tank two days ago, but I didn't have enough tanks and saltwater to keep it in water. I dunked each piece in saltwater and cleaned them. I have some very large piece, lots of medium size pieces, and an overflowing 20 gallon tank of nano size pieces and a very small amount of rubble.

Hope it goes without saying, this should not go into an existing system but would be perfect for mixing with some live rock. There are some awesome shapes and sizes.

There is Fiji, some branches, a couple of shelves, and a couple of pieces of rock from Africa (can't remember name) that has the small looking bubbles all over (calcium formation - not an algae).

Pricing is as follows:

Large & Medium Pieces - $2.00 lb
Nano Pieces - Nice - $1.00 lb
Rubble - $0.50 lb

Here are some photos:

RedDragon - You got it. Let's just say I can fill that order easily.

Sean - You should have seen the back of the explorer when I brought it home. My wife just rolled her eyes at me and then firmly stated in the form of a question that is more of an emphatic command, "No other tanks right?!"

Lee

BTW, I am off Friday's and will be home most of the day (although may go see Rambo during the day sometime).

I saw the rock in person and it's not only a whole ton, but some really nice pieces, too. Thanks again, Lee, I'll get together with you soon. I'm going down to see Kingfish tomorrow to get my tank drilled and the overflow box put on, you'll have to come check it out when they're done.

Its a Dendrophylia. a.k.a. Sunflower Coral. They are one you have to feed each one everyday or they will die and shrivel up. I have some Pink ones with yellow polyps.

Now back on to subject, sorry!

It is.....

I figured he was talking about the dendros b/c my meteor shower is not close to having any orange.

You must be bored......
