DInner - Yes
20 lbs of figi rock

I'll put you down, Robert. Keep in mind that he may not be able to get figi -- but there will be something in that list to pick from. My bet is he'll be able to get some, but that depends on his suppliers.

 

[Kalied20]

Not a problem, I am going to use it to start my "great stuff" project in my 50 gallon. So anything with smaller rocks will be fine.

Thanks,
Robert

Cool! I'm doing a "great stuff" type project as well using a red sea max

 

[devonjevon]

1) dinner not this time
2) salt=yes 1 box
3)rock = I need 2 good pieces of shelf rock. Never recieved rock from ebay does it have to be cured?? or can it go straight into tank.

 

[devonjevon]

Oh yeah since i just submitted my application and dues tonight.
will it be an issue if i dont have my card??

 

[DawgDiggity]

And I am doing a 125g Great Stuff project.. any calls from the Big Blind??
Bought my 'stuff' today and I will cure my rock in a Rubbermaid container until the tank is ready for the water cycle. Are ya'll planning to cover your 'stuff' with epoxy then sand? Got the idea from this thread: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1300282&perpage=25&pagenumber=2
Eventhough foam is inert when cured I still have concern for fish nipping what is exposed, ingesting it, resulting in death. Covering the foam within the shell of a hardened epoxy sounds like an excellent safety measure.
Anyway, I am not very familiar with the live rock options. I a couple of pounds of smaller pieces and probably 30-40 lbs of the largest rock they've got.
Can't wait to meet everyone!

No, man, you'll be fine. You may even get it that night or before.

Also, you may or may not have to cook your rock... I'm thinking you may not because its coming from EBay but because it will be shipped to them and may not have enough time to cure between the time they get it and the time we have our meeting.

Devon, any rock I have got from ebay in the past has always gone straight into my tank. this sounds like some good rock coming in.

[eyebedam]

I need 2 boxes of salt.

 

[DMBillies]

Jack - Better put us down for two boxes of salt. I also imagine we will be attending dinner... but I have to say that might depend on whether or not we buy any expensive/sensitive livestock. I know most stuff can do fine for a while, but I hate the idea of stressing things more than they need to be while I sit and enjoy a delicious burrito.

A delicious $5 burrito... or a beautiful $50 fish... which one is more important?
