Hello Phinsfan!
I didn't see in your post how many pounds of
LR you were looking to obtain for your tank. I personally think that the tonga and Figi would look good together as I have several different types of
LR in my
DT. I personally think that the tonga strategically placed, adds some interesting touches to the finished look. Had you also thought about using some dry rock to use as a base to cut down on some of your expense? Many people, myself included, will buy some of this and use their
LR to "seed" the dry rock. It will only take a few months to give you the same effect versus using all
LR. Marco Rocks, a sponser of TR, has some excellent dry rock if you're interested. Just thought I'd throw that tidbit out there if you were interested. Dry rock is also lighter and you will get more poundage, if there is such a word, versus
LR which will have a water content causing it to weigh more. And of course all
LR is not created eaqual as different types will weigh more than others. The more porous a rock is, normally the lighter is will weigh. Keep us posted on your purchase. I'd love to see some pics of your
LR when you get it. I'm like a kid at the candy store with my face pressed up against the window looking.
