Seemed like they had a pretty bad wrap. But then again TBS was using it as seed rock and never heard complaints about it in that context.Does anyone still use Walt Smith?
I order some from TBS in 2016 for my 24g. And then again straight from Fiji in 2019 via livestockusa.org for my 65g.Does anyone still use Walt Smith?
Yeah I saw it too.Looks like some.good stuff otherwise. Is that a.free.hard coral? A cup.coral below the gorg?
D
Are you planning on adding any more rock?
There’s not enough quality live rock farmers available currently. KP is who I’d buy from at the moment, but I’m excited for TBS to be shipping this fall.
New TBS owners @RockShark, @LiveRockLyon + TBS founder @liverock + new warehouse + 50k lbs walt smith rock + 3 million lbs on site = more live rock for us!
Woohoo!
There is almost zero chance a gorgonian and clams survived but no pods or stars did or worms did. It just takes time for things to come around. I had 2 wennerae mantis survive 2ppm. The stuff you are after on live rock is not delicate.It's been 3 days with the rock and unfortunately we haven't seen a pod, worm, starfish, or anything else alive/moving at all. Clams are still alive and part of the gorgonian is ok. My disappointment mounts each day. Ammonia is still .25-.5
I got an email from KP that they had some back in stock. I ordered 15 lbs shipped overnight in water.

Nothing wrong with getting more from KP overnighted but I'd bet in another week or two you will start seeing life in there either way.
Go for it. I'd wait another week for the ammonia to settle out entirely and then get KP overnighter in water. You are essentially doing a roll-your-own TBS "package" style ramp up at that point.I dont disagree with you, I think it's strange I've seen no activity while the clams are holding on. I check with a flashlight every 30 minutes haha.
I would've ordered the KP rock either way. I need more rock and the more diversity the better.
