CaribSea South Seas Aquascaping Base Rock - 10 lbs Information



Top quality Phillipine base rock, clean and nicely sized from baseball to softball size

South Seas Lace Rock is a great new aquascaping rock that we are excited to be offering. South Seas had much more structure than any other commonly available aquascaping rock and is much more porous than other as well. South Seas is a calcium carbonate base rock that is very similar to actual reef rock and at one point actually was, although it is obtained terrestrially from ancient coral reefs underground. South Seas will make the perfect alternative to live rock or can provide a very attractive base for live rock.

"Good quality" - Product Review by Noah Rombold (Posted on 4/6/12)
Rating
Average

Comments: I was sure wha to expect upon arrival to be honest, never ordered rocks before. THe rocks are good quality, could have had more surface area but still very good. My only gripe was I had several small pieces that appear to have broken of . I guess that is to be expected, packaging seemed adequate. Would have been happier if there had been no breakage.

"custom flo-thru ventilation..." - Product Review by Paul Spiri (Posted on 1/26/12)

Excellent!

Comments: ...and massive surface area. I got 15 nice pieces and there was some sand and little chunks and I put that in the refugium. Very sharp, be careful. I can't wait to fill all those nooks and crannies with a gazillion little critters. Worth every penny.
<br />
<br />Only one negative. The add gave a sale price and I was charged the full price instead. I should have seen it before it shipped and I'm sure they'll make it up on my next order.

"A bit dense, but OK" - Product Review by Angela M Bruneau (Posted on 3/19/10)
Rating
Average

Comments: The rock was a lot denser than I had imagined it to be. I'm used to Fiji and have never bought base rock so always feel rock wet. That is why I'm was suprised to pick up rock that literally felt as heavy as a cinder block of the same size!
<br />
<br />That said, I got 5 pieces. 2 large, 3 medium. 2 were nice, 2 were acceptable, one was garbage (literally, might as well throw cinder block in the tank, not one hole in the rock!)
<br />
<br />Would I recommend? Probably not.
<br />Would I buy again? Nope.
<br />
<br />I like the idea of nature conservation, but the rock ends up being more than 2$ a pound and is probably not the best biofilter given its high density.
<br />
<br />jme.

"seems good overall" - Product Review by John Bunton (Posted on 2/1/10)
Rating
Great!

Comments: Shipment arrived today and began curing instantly. One box had three larger pieces (5-8 lbs.) and five or six smaller pieces and the other had eight or nine similarly sized chunks, but NO RUBBLE at all. Most of the rocks had some great shapes and contours to them and a few looked like sidewalk but overall shapes were good and varied. We'll see how is goes after its cured out and put in the tank.

"not that great" - Product Review by Mark Khalil (Posted on 12/10/09)
Rating
Below Average

Comments: i got a 40 pound order, most of the rocks were slightly bigger than my fist, and only 2 pieces of rocks were really big... but those 2 big rocks were VERY dense, and hand 0 holes in it, they just looked like rock off a mountain. not worth 80+ bucks.

"Nice but inconsistant" - Product Review by Wayne Gething (Posted on 5/21/08)
Rating
Great!

Comments: 2 out of the 4 boxes had a few nicely shaped pieces.
<br />2 out of the four boxes had "no thrills" rock
<br />
<br />After I bought this from Marine Depot I found other internet sales prices $30 +/- cheaper, this is based on product and shipping cost.
<br />
<br />On a difrent note I find Marine depot tech and sales support THE BEST out there! And every time.
