I need to get more Diversity in my tank. My Fowlr is just about 2 years old and started with dry rock and live sand. have gone through the uglies and multiple battles with Dinos and hair Algae. I want to try to get more diversity in my tank. Would the best way be to get some Ocean live rock from Gulf live rock to add or go to indo Pacific sea farms and get worms and all the other stuff they have to add diversity. Or is there a better option?

Tampa Bay Saltwater is my choice. Good luck with whatever you choose!

I added about 15 pounds of rock from KPAquatic and an IPSF mix 'n' match package when I was dealing with large cell amph dinos.

Yah. I’m getting ready to move into the 90 in the living room , converting from fresh. Plan on getting about another 30 lbs or so. I’d love to get Tampa Bay rock, but I do have rely on Uber for transportation. I really wish I could get their rock delivered direct in larger quantities. I might go with KP or Gulf Live since they deliver direct.

I know this is an old thread but I've never heard of Pacific Sea Farms. Where is it? Obviously it must be aquaculture.

$50 a pound from Aquabiomics! Holy smokes. Tampa Bay Saltwater gulf live sand is $2.50 a pound. Both taken from the Gulf of Mexico.
Reef rubble is the biggest rip off of all imo...whether from Aqiabiomics, Australia, or my backyard. Have you seen what it costs???
