Best Place to Get Live Rock?

[Roboson]

Im upgrading my 10g to a 40g and
Am looking to get some more live rock. I'm wondering where you all think has the highest quality rock?

I'm looking for biodiversity mostly, but nice size/shape is minor plus. Cost is also a factor here.

what part of the U.S are you.

 

[Roboson]

Missouri. So there is no local factor.

Can't beat Tampa Bay Saltwater IMHO.

I'm mostly getting the live rock for the hitchhikers. Where would be the best for that?

Tampa bay saltwater has the most life on live rock that I've seen. Very cool stuff they have. There are some threads on here u should check out.

I'm looking at the site and I'm a bit confused on the shipping. It never says the shipping cost. And at $5 a pound, I want to know how much this shipping is gonna be.

craigslist. you can pick up a hitchhiker on your way to pick up hitchhikers. They practically give the stuff away.

Not real sure, u may call them to get a quote. A friend of mine got 50 lbs from them and it's crazy the amount of life that comes in with it.

This was my tank right after I put in my Tampa Bay Saltwater live rock in October. Highly endorse.

I ordered from here and was really pleased with the rock I got. http://floridaliverock.com/

Huge fan of Tampa Bay Saltwater! Especially if you are looking for hitchhikers. I'm about 30 days into it and I still find new hitchhikers every day. Tons of urchins, all types of snails, crabs, feather dusters, tunicates and even a hitchhiker clingfish. Everything is doing great and since it was all shipped in saltwater, the cycle was minimal. Richard at TBS sends very high quality rock and he follows up with me frequently just to check in. The guy loves what he does and it shows. Here are some pics

Got mine from marinedepot.com

I always use marinedepot, but I browse local deals on craigslist first. Be wary of hitchhikers!
