Another Newbie Needing Advise

[supremo]

another question.

i checked out some LFS near my place (east). i saw some rocks,

it looks like those stuff that i see inside the tanks of some members

here but LFS keeps them on the floor and is arid dry. are these

live rocks? Or are they supposed to be in the water while in the shop.

i just thought they mat be conning me in selling an ordinary rock

to a noobie like me.

and aside from size and shape, is there any rule of the thumb stuff

when buying/selecting LR? anything to share?

any tips on the rock selection?

I'm gonna get weipro3000 to power my 2014.

As of LR, nothing beats the smell test. Good LR should smell like the sea. Bad LR will smell like S**T! You'll definitely know whether is good or bad when you smell it. It should also be covered with coraline growth.

2. pump - check, got good advice already

3. sand - check

4. live rock - check, got good advice already

5. tank - !!! so the other thread and guess what, my 3ft tank
