Live rock, sand corals for nano

[katman2]

After 16 years of a 135 gallon reff I am starting my first nano.

What are good sources for quality live rock, sand (not sure I am going to use yet), corals, etc?

Thank you for your advice.

I got nice Marshall Island Live Rock from Premium Aquatics. Just make a note that it's for a nano in the order comments. I didn't and got 3 monster pieces that I had to break up.

i am partial to TBS.. (Tampa Bay Saltwater) they are 1 of our sponcers....check their link
they farm their stuff.. not brake it off a reef like others do. comes in a "package" deal if you want. very well worth every penny.
i have had a 90g setup over a year now, and am still finding new critters and things.

The same sources as your 135. The only difference is that you have to be more selective.

I got my live rock from Dr Mac's. I highly recommend their rock.

I agree with Agu, same sources apply.

We went "down" from a 250 gallon to a 24 gal. AquaPod. After too many years and tanks and all the "stuff, bells and whistles" I can't even remember anymore, I can honestly say we are enjoying this little guy more than any other we have ever had.

I find I use the same sources as I always have. If I have had a good relationship with a vendor in the past, I will choose them first.

Little tanks rock...............good luck and have lots of fun!

The lsat live rock that I ordered was figi that came from Aquatic Specialists. However, that was when John Tullock still had a hand in the operation and a good reputation in the community., I have no idea if that has changed.

Thanks for all the advice.
