    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Those are fine, not sure if they're Zoanthids or Palys, looks like if they color up they would be nice.

    Just gonna provide my .02 real quick:

    The rock is good as garbage at this point, you'll spend more money trying to eradicate those pest anemones than you would on buying those individual corals. You can try fragging off the polyps and ricordeas to save them. +1 to the ID's.

    However, boycotting the LFS is up to you. Assuming the rock was sold as live rock, Its not like they advertised it as coral. While it was shady for them to sell you this rock, they are not obligated to tell you what everything is, they may have assumed you knew. Its not as if they gave you bad advise. I work at an LFS too and we cure all the live rock so it is free of pest anemones, to the best of our knowledge, however not everyone does this. Next time, I highly recommend buying dry rock online and seeding it with a small (1lbs) piece of live rock that is pest free. You'll end up spending half the money per pound of rock, and are guaranteed pest free rock. In the end, if the LFS has good, healthy stock, you shouldn't boycott them just from this. As others have said, research first and check in with us then make a purchase. Even if an LFS gives out bad advise but still has awesome stocking/prices, I'll still go there because, if i'm unsure of something i can always ask the forum; no one gives better advise than 3reef anyways.


    You would be hard pressed to find ANY local fish store that accepts returns on live rock.
