Any suggestions on where to get premium live rock with good growth on it that isn't going to break the bank? I've been out of the hobby for a few years and it's seems like the primo stuff is all but gone. I always went for Fiji but I really like the look of Tukani as well. It's for a 93g cube. I was thinking I need 100 lbs or so. Does that sound about right?

I had a bad experience in the past with the Florida live rock so I won't even consider it. I don't want to bash anyone but I bought 100 lbs and it was loaded with gorilla crabs. They were destroying my fish and corals to the point where I had to take down my tank. Needless to say there is 0 chance that I go down that road again.
 
100 pounds sounds fine! But you can always go more.

By Florida rock do you mean from Tampabaysaltwater?
