I think Aquarium Specialty is phasing out Aquaroche. There was a thread somewhere, too expensive and too much trouble getting it to the US. Only a few pieces left on the website for sale.

They recommend curing the pukani rock. It is just dry live rock so it is full of dead stuff. Just like the shelf rock I got you can see stuff on it so it will all be cured prior to cycling tank.

I bought a vidarock custom structure for my 150 and I love it. I fought with my scape for 2 years and always hated it.

I did a live swap out moving all my rock to the sump and putting in the new ceramic structure. I had zero disruption in my system. No algae cycle, nothing

One of the great features if the vidarock is the purple coloring they give it. It's not a uniform purple, but different shades throughout. It looks even better now that the coralline is starting to grow on it.

I also bought a bucket of frag plugs made from the same stuff. I remount all my frags and when I glue them to the structure it blends right in.

They are slow, the process took me many months, but well worth it.
