    Well I just got home from the LFS and after 6 mo. my 330lbs of live rock are all in. I am very happy with the look--Lots of in and out holes! Just started some corals in the last few weeks. Also got my first little bit of GHA. We will see how I handle this. Never a dull moment!

    300 lbs of rock??????? WOW! Why that much?? I have about 120 lbs in my 150 gallon sps tank. and it's pretty full. I stacked it very loose to get good flow through the rock which I feel is way more important than the actual number of lbs

    300 is about 2lbs per gallon--I stacked very loose. Lots of flow and holes. I just added the 2 Koralia 1's on the back wall facing front as I wanted a little more gentle flow down the front glass. I wasn't going for a set lb. I was adding until I got the look and functionality I wanted. Just happened to be about 300 lbs.
