Where does everyone purchase their microalgae from?

Also where can one purchase actual live rock?

Thanks!

I may have to try out that Tampa Bay rock as I am not finding any uncured live rock.

Gulfcoast ecosystems has great macros when they are stocked. Straight from the ocean. So himers are abundant and great portions. :)

TBS (Tampa Bay Saltwater) is good stuff. However, the owner is recovering from surgery and suspended operations for a couple months. Few other places sell similar I believe. Otherwise you can order the dry stuff. I just ordered 150 lbs dry Pukani from BRS.

Macro algae - visit a local club and I'm sure someone will give you some. Others you can buy online. Once my tank is cycled I'll be using Tang Heaven from indo pacific sea farms. Primary use is for food but it also grows well so will use for whatever export it can.
