    Default Marco Dry Rock FS

    I have around 200 pounds or so of Marco dry rock fs, $3 per pound, pick up in Woburn. It was in my system for over well over 5 years, so there isn't any organic material on it that will cause an ammonia spike when added to your system. This is very "clean" rock. I have all shapes and sizes, along with a 20 gallon tank full of rubble I'll throw in to the first person who buys $100 pounds or more. Please remember to bring a suitable container when coming to pick up, thanks!

    Please shoot me a pm if you are still interested. I don't discuss when I'll be home publicly here on the forum. I've had a few people flake on me, so it's going to be first come, first served at this point.

    I also have some live rock in my main system and sump. I can sell some of this along with the dry rock to help "seed" it. Myself, along with a lot of others have set up system this way many times, and it doesn't take more than a couple of weeks before you will start seeing signs of life, ie beneficial copapods/amphipods. This is by far the lowest cost also because you are not paying $3 per pound for water weight.

    $250 per pound if buying at least 50 pounds. This is the lowest I'm going on this. Any cheaper and I may as well just pack it away in a corner in my shed for future use. I do have quite a bit of smaller pieces that are "live" I can mix in with the dry rock.
