Hello....
I am getting a new saltwater tank pretty soon that is 120 gallons with the sump and all.... Right now I have approx 80 lbs of established live rock. I have 20 lbs of non established live rock thats been sitting in a tank for a couple months, not much coraline algae is growing on it yet though. (just a few spots) Anyway, I am looking at getting approx 50-100 more lbs of live rock for the new tank to add to the rock i already have. I've been looking and there have been many sales pitches on many websites I've seen. I sure would like to have green pink, and orange and red coraline algae on my rocks as well as the purple/pink that I already have. So If I buy Marshall Island rock, and Tonga, or something else from some other location... Am I more likely to get more colors from it than I am from this pinkish/purpleish fiji rock I have currently? I want some of it to be branch rock and some of it to be shelf type and some to be just boulder type, then I am going to need some cheap rubble to build up in the sand bed and to support my structure and to go into the refunerium or however you spell it.... Do you guys have any advice for me, if I am going to spend the dollar for it where would be the best online retailer to purchase it from? thx a lot!:shades:
