live rock

[cncd11]

has anybody bought the live rock packages of saltwaterfish.com? If so what is the average size of the rocks? And the quality?

I was currious about this as well. I have an established tank 55 gallon, that I have several species in.. I didn't start off with the right amount of live rock and wish to purchace some more from this sight. However, I have fear of adding additional rock from any online source, as I read that it may need to be cured again.
Anyone have any insight to this? As well as

If you both give me till later today ill let you know about ordering live rock from saltwater. I get my shipment in today. I think it is going to be fine. Did you read how they cured it? and cleaned it? as for the size we did request some smaller peices as well as largers ones as well. we ordered the larger shipment. It is half the price as my lfs. So we will see i guess. but i have faith. Ill get back to you as soon as i get it in. I think by noon central i should have it

Was your tank already established? With little fishies? :thinking: If so did you do anything special?

my tank was almost 1 year old when i put the live rock in all i did was put the live rock into a 20g tank with a power head and a filter and let it re-cure because of die off when it was shipped

How long would you say it took to re-cure? Whats the average? Was there a need for additional chemicals or what not? I would guess not if you only put a power head and a filter on it. *Shrug
