Thanks again. I think I'll probably go with making it myself. I might even put it on the reef for a week or so after I cure it to let it get live....all I have to do is put it there, so thinking I might as well.

I'm not quite sure what to do about the sand...live sand is supposed to be illegal, but if I got aragonite it would become live anyway. Haha...so I'm not quite sure what to do with that.

Any way I slice it, it should be fun though. The fish are way cheaper here too, in Manila, and there is a local boat that is usually around that collect fish and I might be able to get them even cheaper...which would mean no transport either...just from the reef to his holding tank for a few minutes then 15 minutes back to my house. I was a little disappointed at first with the regulations, but I think it will be really fun.
