I placed 2 seperate orders from an online retailer and was very happy with both. Email me if you'd like the site.

I ordered 25# of the $1.99 per pound stuff of the auction site and I was fairly happy with it. Color was alright, packaging was poor, overall for $4 and some change shipped, I will not order from them again. I found a place that I am VERY happy with and thier stuff is around $6 per pound shipped and is covered with color and I just found some polyps yesterday starting to pop out. For my money, I would rather pay alittle more and get better quality then find the cheapest guy on the block.

I can get it locally for $6 a pound and it is great quality, but I want the same quality for less money hehe.

I paid around $140-$150 for 45 pounds, including shipping. Thats, what, about $3/pound. I was very happy with how it was packaged and shipped. I got it within 24-hours of it being sent (California to Arizona), so I'm sure that helped with the very little die-off. Corraline was great on some pieces and just ok on others. I didn't really have much in the way of hitchhikers.

I have a suggestion, order base rock from HI rocks and save yourself a ton of money, at about a buck per pound it beats the heck out of ordering live rock at 6,7 or 8 bucks per pound. Then just add some liverock and livesand to that to seed it with.
nuff said.

I went to Wal-mart a while back looking for something...I found it and didn't really like the price(or the fact that I'd have to go against my better judgement and pay Wal-Mart money for anything)...so I stood inside the Wal-mart store and stopped every customer I could catch and asked each of them if they knew where I might be able to purchase this item cheaper from a more friendly store. I got lots of good advice and responses...but guess what...in no time at all the staff at that Wal-mart was asking me to leave....said stuff about not appreciating my requests for lower prices and friendlier service...I explained that I liked the product but wanted to find a little lower price and that I'd prefer not to purchase this item from Wal-Mart if I could avoid it....they said I was disrupting their customers and interfering with their business.............they kicked me out.....hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....go figure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
