Fiji Rock from SWF.com

[ukcats]

I got my order form SWF and my fiji rock was almost like base rock. It had very very little color and looked NOTHING like the picture online. Has anyone else ever gotten this rock? Were you satisfied? It just looks like brown rock that has speaks of coraline on it. I purchased rock from my lfs that had lots of critters and coraline on it. Any thoughts?

Did you get the premium grade or the regular from here? I got the premium grade and LOVED it. The post above this one has some more rock pictures from this site its called LR SWF.com i think or maybe just LRpics. Heres mine after 1 day in the tank does yours look like this?

yeah it does. Maybe my expectations were different. All of the LR I have gotten before was full of snails, worms and coraline...but this was more plain looking. I was expecting more life i guess. Does more gron on it after a few weeks in the tank?

Oh yea it will spread pretty rapidly. After your water parameters get all setup good then things will spread great. I have had mine up for about 2 months now and my corraline has probably doubled.

I got the premium and ended up using it for base rock 6 mo later the only life on it is near the contact points with my "live" rock.
