Does anyone have any branch rock lying around you want to get rid of? I want to add some height to my tank but don't want to spend $200 on a CaribSea Coral Tree.

You, me, everyone else. I think Jeff at Aquaworld had some Tonga stashed somewhere but I thunk he wants something like $30 a pound for it.

Literally just had a similar conversation about it. Is it hard to find now? What's a reasonable price for it?

Tonga stopped being an export option a while ago.


This is literally the whole impetus for BRS's whole NSA thing built from gluing together small pieces - they're trying to replicate tonga rock.

Tonga comes up for sale on ebay and facebook every once in a while. Usually around $10-40 per lb plus shipping.

So CaribSea tree kit it is. I assumed it was hard to get when I was checking the usual suspect's websites but I've been out for a while so I hadn't heard anything more "official".

I pulled the trigger on the Carib Sea Coral Tree kit for $199. Hopefully it will do what I want.
