Hey everybody,

I'm looking to buy about 70 lbs dry FIJI rock. Not sure if anybody has that amount laying around.

If not, anybody have any experience with BulkRS? For 2.79/lb I cant seem to find anything more reasonable on price.


Thanks!

I've ordered rock from them with success. I think there is a note area where you can request certain styles/shapes. Do that , if not they will send you the stuff no one wants.
Try to get those discounts , shipping gets pricey. Overall good experience though.

Yeah I believe (if I remember correct) anything over 175$ ships free. I appreciate the heads up about the note for special shapes, I would've never known and ended up getting whatever they sent! :headwally:

That's right yea I believe shipping will be free then.
Yea if it doesn't let you put a note then before they ship it send them and email about the style you want.
The first time I ordered Tonga branch I received a bunch of small branches ( size of a pen, max), second time I requested longer pieces and it was perfect.

Just placed an order for 70lbs, And I saw the comment section and made sure I wrote in it :lmao:
Thanks again! hopefully they can put together some quality pieces for my build! :thumbsup:
 
Following along - if you wouldn't mind, could you post your impression of the pieces you receive, as well as how it conformed to your request? I will be in the market for rock soon. Thanks

I sure will!

They shipped out the same day, UPS estimates to be here in 2 days!?!?!?!?!?! I am already impressed!

I requested Medium/Large Pieces but also told them what I was trying to accomplish being a"mountain" like structure on one side of the 180g tank. Hopefully they put together a nice selection, cant wait to see!

Also ordered 160LBS of special grade reef sand so it's coming together slowly but surely

Oh I forgot to mention I'm a second floor condo with no elevator, only stairs :lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:
 
Not sure how the Fiji is but I love the pukani. Don't be afraid to chop it up into more interesting pieces. I used a chop saw on the bases of mine so they had a nice flat base to lay on the glass. I also epoxied some of the smaller rubble pieces to make some small arches to give the fish stuff to swim through. Post some pics when you get it!
 
So I recieved the rock today and I have to say I am kind of let down. I requested medium/large pieces and they did not fail me there, the sizes of the rock I recieved are perfect and match my current Fiji rock amazing. The only thing I am not too happy with is the fact most of the pieces are non-pourous and looks like a blob of rock. The Fiji rock I have now is almost a completely different look. Don't get me wrong there are a few pieces I like in the shipment but other then that I can't say much about it. Might try and get some locally I know a few LFS that have good Fiji! But I guess for 2.79/lb you get what you pay for! Lesson learned lol
