Aquarium Advice Addict
Yep. I've got 20lbs of LR in my 20 gallon nano, with Purigen and floss pads in the HOB, and my water parameters are perfect.
Great advice. I would have never thought to do that. I'm wondering if I should get a small power head to put on the opposite side of the aquarium facing the live rock to prevent dead spots?
Cool. I will do that for sure. Should I just set up without a power head first and see how it does?
Awesome. Wheres a good place to get some good inexpensive live rock?
Bulk reef supply. I have a group buy planned for next week. See the link in my sig.
Big x2 on group buys, everyone saves on shipping.
so how much is the saving percentage compare to regular non-bulk group buyer? and how does everyone save on shipping? i thought shipping is usually flat rate that's determined by the package carrier
Not with BRS buys. You pay shipping individually, but get up to 21% off products, depending on what they are.
I don't think your grasping the concept, if a company has a flat rate of $24.00 shipping and you get 60lbs of rock but you and your buddy only need 30lbs each, then you just split the shipping amongst yourselves for $12 each. Its a really simple process and you both save.
Only if you and your buddy are close to each other and can do a local pickup. The standard BRS group buy does not discount shipping beyond their normal discount nor do they offer a multi-ship option. Other stores offer this, BRS does not.
Ok ill just stop the madness here I'm not talking about using a site for the actual grouping, I meant one person ordering multiple things for multiple people as his own purchase, they can each pay for their portion of shipping and goods outside that website lol
Anyways to the OP group buys are an awesome way to save a lot of money with friends.
