Has anyone used Tampa Bay Saltwater live rock (The package) recently?
Yes. It is quality LR. It looks great and comes with a lot of life. But, there are some cons you need to take into consideration. It will come with pests. I only ordered 50lbs and it came with: 100+ gorilla crabs, 1 mantis, polyclad worms and more. In the future I want to run a FOWLR with TBS LR but I wouldn’t start a reef with the stuff again. It took me over a year to get rid of the pests. Also, most of the cool macro algae, corals, barnacles, etc that came on the rock died off over the first year.
 
Wow, good to know. I had a reef tank years ago that i started with something similar to the Tampa Bay rock and it was really nice. I really liked all the life that was on it and was very colorful. I would like to do something like that again.
 

IF YOU HAD TO TAKE A REEFING EXAM, WOULD YOU PASS?
