Has anyone here bought LR from saltwaterfish.com. I am thinking of buying some for my 29 gal and I would like to know how the quality of the rock is?

Yes, I bought 50 lbs back in September "05 to add to the rock I already had. It was shipped next day, packaged great. Very little die off, although it did have to be somewhat cured. It is now 9 months later and the rock is completely covered in corraline. It actually started to do this after 3 months. I highly recommend this site. I would get more, but no where else to put it.

I really liked the fact that they sent all different sized pieces.

Since the tank was just being set up-transfer from a smaller tank-and no fish were in the 125, I used the rock to speed up the cycling. You always have to recure rock that has been shipped. They ship the rock somewhat dry, not submersed in water, with wet newspaper covering it. So some of the critters may die. If no fish are in the tank, just put it in. Be sure to run your skimmer. It will cure in no time.
