That's not a bad price, for a LFS. Don't trust that it's 100% cured though.

I was looking through some old post. And decided to buy half dry rock/half live rock.can it be two different kinds of rock and if so. The live rock will seed the dry rock correct. If any one has any suggestions let me know. I was looking at bulk reef supply and this is what I thought might look nice Pukani Dry Aquarium Eco Rock.

Here Fiji is $8 a pound. Check online too but watch the shipping prices. My lfs has a rock cleaning bottle with a brush on it. Haven't used it but you can try.
