	Cured Live Rock
PeaceB2U Hobbyist Posts: 64 Kudos: 48 Votes: 0 Registered: 25-Jul-2004	Anyone know of a good site where I can purchase fully cured live rock online? Most of the sites I've come across only sell pre-cured or uncured rock. The only exception to that has been the Aquarium Arts site which doesn't allow you to order online. I've tried e-mailing them but haven't gotten a response yet.

There is only one company that I know of that ships their rock in water, and it is expensive to do that.

No, I don't have a garage. [span class="edited"][Edited by PeaceB2U 2004-08-09 12:20][/span] [span class="edited"][Edited by PeaceB2U 2004-08-09 12:21][/span]
