I have a newish(1 year) tank that I have mostly live rock in with a few peices of dry rock. My question is where can I buy or get 1-2 pieces of rock already covered in coralline algae to seed my tank? Right now I have none in the tank(besides a couple snails w/ some on there shell). If anybody lives near Woodbridge VA and has some or is willing to ship some please let me know. Thanks
 
Just a personal observation here, but I have found using white light (10k) really grows coralline fast. When I had 10k bulbs in my t5 combo it grew like mad. Now there's no 10k on my display and I really don't have much, but my entire refugium (which has a 10k bulb) is covered. It has actually completely covered my cheato and it can't get light to grow now. I do have asterina starfish that eat plenty of coralline and help keep the display cleared of any. But they had a very hard time keeping up with the 10k.
 
Here's a pic while I was using 10k

And after switching to blue plus, purple plus and coral plus
