Best place to get live rock?

Where is the best place to get live rock these days? I'm thinking I'd rather have a few really big show pieces in the display tank than lots of smaller pieces (leave those for the fuge). I used to by from FFExpress and WaltSmith back in the day, are Live Aquaria or WaltSmith still good places to get rock, or is there a better online site that sells good show-size fiji lr?

I bought 120lbs of Kaelini Tonga from Vivid Aquariums , and asked for show pieces like you are looking for. I received two pieces around 40 pounds each and two around 20 pounds each... beautiful.

I have also purchased rocks from Premium Aquatics; again, beautiful rock, and they'll pick them to suit you. More algae and life on their rocks, which may be a good or bad thing depending on your preference.
