Time to fill the New Tank

[Red Sox Fan]

According to shipping the aquapod 24 is arriving tomorrow. So on Wednesday I am looking for LR LS and Salt.

Anybody know who has any of this on Sale, or is selling it.
Also I need to know what type of salt to get? What type of LR to get? I heard Fiji has a lot of critters in it that I may not want in my tank. I was told this by an LFS.

All help and suggestions is appreciated

There are several good salts out there. I use instant ocean and dont have any problems due to the salt. I would suggest that what ever brand you start with to only use it. ie water changes.

I would say any type of live rock will work but just make sure it is cured. I think paljet sales rock and has different types. Are you going to use a skimmer? If not it is very important to get cured rock. As a rule of thumb I try to get about 1 to 2 lbs per gal.

Paljets has some really awesome rock! Great for aquascaping. I also saw an ad on Craigslist. Someone was selling cheap fiji for $2.50 per pound.

we got some live rock from Paljets and we love it! ATR has some good rock too.

I bought some Marshall Island rock from Paljets and some Pukani (sp?) from About the Reef and I really like both kinds of rock. Between the two businesses, you get an awful lot of rock to hand pick from too!

Paljets is located in Phx on 32nd St. and Chandler Blvd. I picked up 23 lbs. of Tonga fusion for $3.75 a pound. Nice rock at a good price.
