Does anyone have experience with the Walter P.Smith live rock? Or how about the Drs. Foster and Smith? Then of course there is SWF.And you also have the auction site. Is it all the same stuff but the name has been changed to protect who knows what? Just a thought. Auction site $1.97lbs,local fs $7.99lbs.Ideas please.TIA

i bought my rock off the big auction site. It cut a lot of the price off even with the shipping.
You get a lot of die off. I was kinda dissapointed with mine, it seemed to not have that much color, now it has a pretty good amount of color. It just takes time.

i got mine at the lfs for about $6/lb. it was out of the ocean for about 4 hours, but packed in enough newspaper and water that i got virtually no die off, and a ton of hitchikers. can email me mjwag1975 at cox.net if you want more info.

Got mine from the Big auction site! It took a couple of weeks to start seeing the color, but It is booming now! It had been about 2 months.

I got 50lbs of Tonga Branch from my LFS and another 50lbs of Fiji off the Auction site at $1.97 per lb. The fiji took some time (had it about 2 months) but now it is covered with nice purple and green coraline. I'd definitely buy more of the same again.

Thanks for all the replys. I think the auction site is the way to go. Even with the shipping it is still less than any lfs in my area.I can deal with a little die off.Did any of you ADD anything to the water to encourage some more coraline growth? Purple up?Whatever that is.TIA
