Live Rock question

[nvmycj]

I've been reading other forums about Hawaii Live Rock. What is your opinion regarding Hawaii rock as compared to Fiji or Florida rock? Any difference in care, growth, pro's and/or cons? I haven't started yet with my take..........trying to get AS MUCH INFORMATION as possible. Thanks for your thoughts.

Is that the Kailini rock? It is supposed to be really good. I just bought some marshall island rock for my nano and it is the best rock [shapes not colors] I've ever put into my tank. Marshall is supposed to be similar to the kaelini.
Personally I would only use florida rock as base rock, and make sure its from a reputable source. Don't fall for the free mantis shrimp with every order.
