Where is live rock full of color and life?

So, my tank is freshly up and running but I'm in search of multiple colors and types of coralline algae. Also, want to add a little diversity in my refugium.

Does anyone know where I can buy one large rock or a few small rocks that are covered with life to put in the fuge?

Everywhere I look there is a minimum order to buy. I don't need a ton, just one.

Thanks!

Any local fish stores near by? You could drive over to Tampa Bay Saltwater and pick up a piece, just email the owner first.

Thanks! I think I've heard of them before. I'll definitely go that route. Especially since they are local to me.

Look at your local reef club. Just be careful not to get rock with disease on it otherwise you started this hobby way behind the curb
