    jaime, if you want decent cheap LR try the marinecenter in Dallas. They ship it freight within Texas for very reasonable price. I have heard mostly positive things about their rock.

    www.themarinecenter.com

    They also have some of the healthiest rare fish in the continental US, at a premium price of course.

    well I talked to one of hte top guys and he said that the more live rock we get the more the price go's down and he also said that he can ship it over on air for about .37 a lb but the least you can get to ship it over on a plane is 100lb, so I want to order 50 lb for me and if we order over 150 or so we get a good discount on the rock, well tell me what you guys want to do, :-D

    I'll sell it to you for $3.00 a lbs. if you buy 100 lbs. You have to take it in the box though. This will be premium Fiji.

    that would be great for me Tim but the reason I wanted to order
    some live rock was for my-self and for some people farther down south
    than we are, the shiping is good from this place and there is no extra charge to ship the order all over or more than one city I can get my order here in Austin and they will ship them theres for no extra charge, like I'm only looking for 30-40 lb's but the people down here in Brownsville have only one place to buy anything and buying live rock out there is asking for an arm and a both legs, so I'm realy trying to help them out and my self I've talked to someone in brownsville who order from this place and he said the rock was great there was all kinda live like crabs,lobsters,anemones,and ect. he said it had hardy any die off, so this sounds like a good place, But like I said I'm just trying to help out these guy's down here, :lol:


    P.S hey Tim when I get my 120 from Ed I'll be giving you a call fo some LR
