Been researching live rock on RC by reading multiple threads(good info!) I also went to my LFS to inquire as well. When I was shown "Base Rock" it was dried, pure white, porus "coral like" rock?!?...is that right. For some reason I thought base Rock was supposed to be wet and just not as "encrusted" and porus as true LR. I was told if I go with this stuff under my actual LR it will eventually get covered with coraline alge....etc.....make sense?? The LR was $7.99 per pound while the BR was 2.99 per pound. I'm seriously thinking of going on line to buy...maybe even ebay to save some green. From my research there seams to be a few qood quality vendors out there. My only concern is that by purchasing on-line, I will have to deal with what ever is sent to me with regards to shape and size. I have a reletively small (75 gal) see through/wall devider tank and I need to be particular in my selection for aquascaping purposes. Anyone know of a good "hands on" vendor that might be willing to work with me regarding shape n size? Also...can you "break up" LR without any major issues....and are there any recomendations as to how other than going at it with a hammer.
thanks
