In addition to the Fiji and Tonga Rock that I offer at $4.99 ($3.99 for ARC members) I recieved 100# of Aquacultured Florida Keys rock, it is covered in several types of coral, I do not know exactly what type the corals are but some are pink and some are white. $8.99 or $6.99 for members. This rock is very porous and totally cured.

+1 for this rock. I didn't really need any more rock in my tank, but Chris hand picked a couple small pieces for me. I'll find somewhere to jam it in there! Super, lightweight, covered with life rock. Thanks Chris!

AWESOME stuff,
Chris picked me a real nice piece with some live coral on it - it's already in my tank and all polyps are out and it is doing just fine.
I definitely know what I will get for the 225 setup now...

I too picked up a small piece of it today from him. I got a very nice piece with coral and sponge all over it. I too hope to be able to put this in a new tank soon.

Is this what I got from you yesterday, Chris?

If so, the larger piece is covered up in some small yellow polyps. I didn't even see them in the store but they started coming out about 2 hours after I got it in the tank.

This is in addition to the corals with the clear polyps.

Both pieces of rock are beautiful and covered up in corals!

That would be it, we were just digging through the rock and I located an orange cup and encrusting Monti as well. Into the 300 they go.

LOL, well I'm not going to make it any easier. Here's a picture of one of the rocks - the one with yellow polyps all over it. Be sure to enlarge it to see them better.

STOP IT ALREADY! :D That's a great piece, BTW. What are the approximate dimensions of that rock?

Arrrrgh, you would ask me that question! I'm lousy at this, but I'd guess about 10 inches by 8 inches. I bought the smaller rocks because I didn't need anything large, but he had great big ones down to small pieces.

Lots of orange sponge, a tan coral with white and clear polyps, and the yellow polyps have all surfaced since I put them in the tank yesterday.

Oh yeah, and one of the red tube worms, too!
