    Who carries the best dry rock.

    I have been hearing the most buzz about BRS, reefcleaners, and marco rock.

    For 50 lbs of dry rock I think that marco rocks looks the best. I have seen some pictures of BRS rock (specificly the reef saver) and didnt like the way it looked. It looked solid, like no holes for bacteria to grow or corals.

    I was wondering if anyone has had experience with a few different companies here and could share.

    Just looking for 50lbs so the free shipping that RC and MC offer seems better than BRS as well.

    What do you guys think?

    Ive only seen the Marco in person. Very light, and porous. But the dry rock on BRS looks great too.

    Cant go wrong with ReefCleaners IMO..I ordered 30lbs for my 29g and it was great. Awesome customer service also. And it seems with everything you order whether it be a cuc or rock they throw in a little extra.

    I've ordered a CUC and dry rock from reefcleaners and it was top quality product, top quality customer service. I highly recommend them.

    I don't think you can go wrong with Reefcleaners or Marco. I used Marco and was very pleased with it. The rock I received was great and it shipped quickly. I ordered 50lbs and got 55. My only personal experience is with Marco Rocks, but I have heard good things about both.

    I have the Marco dry rock in mine and have seen the ReefCleaners, I still think they source the rock from the same place. You can't go wrong with either :joker:

    Good Luck

    I bought 30lbs of dry Pukani from BRS and talk about some awesome rock! My tanks 8 months and the rock is already totally covered with coraline. Porous, with lots of holes to fit plugs and critters.
    I've bought 2 different packages from ReefCleaners. A CUC and chaeto/pods. Couldn't be happier :)
