    Hey everyone I'm looking for a good place to get rock for my sump. I will need about 100lbs, it doesn't have to be pretty I just don't want to have to cure it. Ether LFS or online I just can't spend a fortune. Does anyone have any experience with marco rocks the site seems to have good prices and free shipping but I wasn't sure if they were any good? Thanks for any help.

    I really like the dry live rock you can get from Bulk Reef Supply.  Over 50# ships for free.  I've had some of their Pukani and it was wonderful.  The nice thing about this rock is that since it ships dry, you are not paying for any water weight.  The rock is very porous and nice looking.  I order 15# a year ago and got 3 basketball size pieces.  You can pretty much tell them what size pieces you are looking for and they will do their best to send pieces of that size/shape.  They are a great online source.  I did put my rock in a salt water mix for about a week before I added it to the display tank - but you don't need a long (i.e. weeks) time as with uncured rock.
