I just picked 25 lbs up as well @ their sale price of $1.34/lb. Great looking rock!

Wow, you are quick on the trigger

I fixed that about 2 minutes after I posted. Thanks for the heads up though.

No I left it to chance. I ordered 12 pounds of shelf and got one really big and one really small. Maybe I should have asked for two equal size rocks or one big one and whatever the diffeernce was just add it to the other type rock that was the same price. For example I got 12 shelf and 12 "reefsaver" that were the same price. I just picked those numbers and it could have been 11 and 13 or 10 and 14.

I am still happy with what I got. Now I have to figure out how to arrange it with the stuff I already have.

Good luck with yours. Did you order any particular type and make any requests?

i added to the comments section what i wanted in shape and size, to my surprize ryan emailed me back to get some specfics, he was very specific about getting my specifics, i am thinking this is top notch customer service! i got serveral large pieces with lots of surface area, kinda like your shelf but not quite.

Just redid my 30 using 25 lbs of BRS Mixed Dry "Base" Aquarium Eco Rock @ $1.34/lb. - that stuff is awesome. Stacked it in less than 15 minutes. Pictures to follow once the dust settles.
