Placed my second order with Tampa bay saltwater on the 27th of November for 40lbs rock , 20lbs of sand, and some critters. The next morning TBS reached out to me to get some info about my tank and set up shipping timeframe.

We agreed on the 11th for delivery and after a one day delay due to weather I got my rocks on the 12th!

Cargo pickup was easy and for three boxes at 130lbs the fee was about $170.

I asked for them to leave all the hitchhikers on my rocks and I’m so glad they did. Each rock was absolutely full of tiny crabs, snails, sponges, algae, worms, etc. I have a mantis shrimp and a puffer who will enjoy all the extras.

I also asked for flat rocks and they absolutely delivered, I even got a really nice branch piece!

They threw in a bunch of extra critters as well, a few tiger gobies, a large orange sponge, and a decorator crab covered in sponges were the highlight!

I will definitely be ordering again, the rock looks fantastic in the tank and I can’t see myself starting dry ever again.

If you’re debating ordering from them you will not be disappointed!!

It was a pleasure working with you @SaltyCabbage.
We do our best to curate the right rock for every scenario and this looks perfect. Love the aquascape and can't wait to see the tank grow out!
