I didnt order any particular peices, just 180lbs. I am going to pick up some more specific peices next month. Did you order them on serperate days or did UPS screw up?

J.R Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 [language filter] UPS..I hope they dont screw my shipment up..I want to play with my new rock! I was looking at some of those flat peices they have on BRS for my next order..I just wanted to wait to see how much rock 180lbs of dry rock looks like. I was going to order 280lbs of rock at one time but figured I would wait and see what this stuff looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.R Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Well the rock I am getting now is going to go into my 180. My first thought was doing 1.5-2lbs of rock per gallon but then decided since I was going to get this dry rock that has no water weight to it that it might be safer to just by the 180lbs first and see where that gets me.

SquidHC Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 For those who want to know... The BRS REEF SAVER rock is the only rock that is mined from on land. The rest of it is just dried out rock. "Eco" is because it is economicaly priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
