live rock types

[funkincredible]

i was wondering what are the advantages/disadvantages of the different types of live rock that are on the market at different prices as well. is there a major difference in rock, or organisms on rocks such as vanuatu, marshall island, fiji, or somoan, or are they more or less the same, just from different locations? any light on the subject would be much appreciated

The main diference between the diferent rocks(other than where it comes from,and shape)is how lightweight and pourous it is.I guess It reall depends on what you want the rock to do.If you are looking for a good bio media rock,stay away from the heavy rock like branch rock.Branch rock is not very pourous and does not have the surface area for good bacteria growth like fiji,or marshall.But if you are just going for a good looking rock,then it comes down to what ever you prefer.
