    I just ordered 50 pounds of dry Florida reef rock from reefcleaners delivered for $100.00. Any body use this stuff. It looks real good from the pictures on their site. Anybody have some pics of this stuff in their tanks? Thanks.

    Thanks for the pics guys. How long have your tanks been set up? Just wondering how long it takes for coraline to take over the rocks?

    get them, they are a great deal. For coraline to take off you have to get your calcium above 400, magnesium above 1100, and keep your DKH in the 8-12 range.. good luck with it..

    Yeh I understand about keeping parameters correct to stimulate the coraline to spread, I'll have to stay on top of things. They said that the rock is mined 30 miles inland from an ancient reef site. I figured it would be more dense than regular live rock so I ordered 50 pounds for my 29 gallon. I will still get some good live rock pieces to put in with it but the live rock is $10.00 a pound in Nashville so I won't get a lot of it. Nice looking tanks above and the rock looks great. Can't beat $2.00 a pound and free delivery.
