    Truth be told I actually like the look of your marco rock more than a what I can make out in his picture (aside from a few select pieces of his)

    I like the pourous rock that I got from marco. More surface area for water to flow through to buffer the water. Mine turned crystal clear in less than 48 hours.

    I used Marco rocks also and am very happy with it. I don't think I even rinsed it, but I was starting a new tank with it and new sand, so I didn't bother rinsing the rock because I knew I would get a TON of dust anyways with the sand.
