LR or LS?

[glinton]

Okay, I only have limited money but I am ready for the next step of my reef adventure. Should I buy live sand next or live rock? (Due to money restrictions, I only can get one or the other). I have some dry base rock that I have ordered that will be here next week, I plan to add to the base rock with live rock (about 10-15 pounds).
So again, should I buy the 10-15lbs base rock or should I wait and get some LS next?

get your LR. the LR will seed the LS over time anyway....i started with just regular caribsea aragonite at first, and after 8 months its FULL Of life from my rock.

Get enough dead sand for a 3" sand bed. Then the rock will *mostly* seed the sand and make it live. After you increase your bio-load and get some cask buy a couple pounds of live sand or a detrivire/reseed kit.

That's what I was thinking about doing.
Thanks!
