has anyone used the livesand or liverock from swf.com?

i was jsut curious to see if anyone has used the live sand from here and if they liked it that free shipping on the live rock kinda makes that interesting too anyone tried that as well? my local shop sells the rock for like 5.60lb or something liek that didnt look into it too much wasnt thinking ill get it but i might end up with a sand bed not deep though and the live rock but only about 25lb of it live and some dried rock my tanks will not have any corals but i will have a blue hippo tanf and a fire angel and i heard those like to graze on the rocks and they help with filtration also with only about half of the recommended live rock in the tank would it still be a good idea to leave the biowheels on my powerfilter and think im gonna have a seaclone protien skimmer i really like the price thanks for any help i get.
oh yeah i have a 55gal tank and only reason for the biowheels is it comes with the tank

I have ordered LR from this site, and it was very nice(big pieces, lots of coraline, lots of tubeworms, pods, spaghetti worms, etc.). I have also used the Natures Ocean LS that SWF sells, Great stuff!
As far as the seaclone, I've heard they are just not worth the trouble. Check into the red sea prizm, I've heard much better things about it.

can't tell you about the LR or LS but I have had the seaclone and prizm... I sold the sea clone on ---- and I am using the prizm and I like it a lot. It can be loud though.
