Many Types Of LR

[blackpuma]

Hi Ppl,

I am going to buy some LR soon. Went to many LFS and found many type of live rock.

Got rock full of macro algae. got rock full of pinkish coralline algae and also got dead rock in the process of being revived together with other LR being sold as "Live Rock".

Prices range from $5 to $10 per kilo and sizes varies from palm size to big ones.

Also got branches at 18 per kilo which I definately cannot afford, claimed to be from tonga.

I am setting up a FOWLR and would appreciate if anyone could tell me what is the best type to buy. I also read from some book that the more porous the rock is the better it filters the water.

Also where is the best place for good and reasonably sized LR. I don't mind paying slightly more for good quality rocks. The $5 rock is very smallish and comes with a lot of macro algae.

Thx.

visit www.wetwebmedia.com

in the authors opinion, fiji live rock is the best.

i agree too.

the reasons are stated in the website.

usually these rocks are priced at $8 per kg.

can get good ones at sea life.

for live rocks, pinkish corraline algae is what u want on the rock.

not macro algae.

don't buy rocks in the process of being rivived

Hey Bro, CR sell their LR how much per kg??

more than odinary folks can afford...

[babyfishy]

are 'fiji rocks' and 'fuji rocks' the same?

how come Dispar_Anthias & shoelevy mention 'fiji rocks'

but the wakai marine at sungei tengah sells 'fuji rocks'?

i am getting confused..

[surfedelic]

i think it is a wrong spelling .... the correct spelling should be Fiji

[babyfishy]

oic. tks. so can anyone confirm if wakai at sungei tengah is selling fiji rocks?

[zorden]
