This was just posted to a local reef group.
I tried looking up marine solutions and they just look like a marine construction company of some sort.

I have no plans of starting another tank right now but for 0.50 cents a pound it is time to stock up.
Should I drive up there to check it out or is this going to be some low quality rock?

I started with mostly dry/dead rock and then made some Aragocrete to finish off the tank. If you pick it up, you could always start soaking it and make it live?

Good idea, I'll have plenty of time to play with rocks and make some cool things then get it cycling.

I'm worried it will be low quality/brittle or something because it is so cheap. Hopefully it is good stuff and I save a lot of money.

Definitely cheap! I got #80 for $100. That's the best deal I've seen since.
