questions?

Do you only ship 2.1 rock now? Can you still buy the older stuff? Do not really want man made rock.

The live Pukani is the nicest live rock I've ever seen!

Do you have the live pukani now?

I am about ready to actually do this tank.. I know the inquiry was a while ago but the tank was on hold do to too many projects this summer.

I am ready this soon.

How much Pukani live would you recommend for a 54 gallon tank? I know pukani is very light compared t the older aqua cultured rock used.
I would like premium deco rock.

I got three rocks when I ordered for my REEFER Nano. A big 14"x8" one, one about half that, and a smaller one. I would order again for sure.

How did the diving go and how was the visibility? Anything exciting that you don't see day to day?

Side question - you mentioned larger pieces above. How does that impact shipping, packaging, or total cost? Or does it work out about the same? My 240 just finished the leak check so almost ready to move into the house. Once that is done I can see an order. I'll be reaching out shortly to ask a couple questions since I do not want has much rock that the 240 package offers (I'll be moving some from my existing tank) but do want the live sand and some larger pieces of rock.

Shipping wise cost is about the same I just have to ship in a double box for some bigger pieces. Same weight just need the extra room . In comments section let Richard know you would like less rock and whole package besides that . No leaks is good . Thanks

Will do on the comments section and thanks. It needs to be in the house by December 28th! That is the date last year when it was dropped off RL found a way to get in the way. Oh well, getting closer.

Thanks again.

Ok I want to set this up. I do not want the Walt2.1 rock I want the deco live pukani the older style. I want a certain size since it is a smaller tank, no giant pieces just small to medium so I can aquascape.
I am guessing this is not a good time to ship and would be best after Christmas. I also would like live sand and want it between Christmas and new years shipped Southwest.

I do not want package just rock and sand. how much would You recommend of each for 54 gallon?

The weather has been a factor and shipping is day to day .After the 25th shipping a little easier. I would order 50 lbs of sand and eighty pounds of rock . When you fill out on line order form in comments section you can write in your requests. I took note on type of rock . Hope this helps
