    Default Live rock what is the best recipe?

    I have :?:'s regarding Live rock if just starting a new 125 what is the best way to do it :?:. My budget does not allow me to put 125 #'s of LR right from start up I'll be lucky if I will be able to do 50#'s would it be best to start out with say 30-40 #'s cured from my LFS. Then say this summer when I can cure some in the garage order some off of the net :?:

    Then my next :?: is what kind so far my favorites are Marshall Island / branch & Figi is one LR better than another :?: Has anybody bought any LR of of the net if so who is a reputable site

    In lighten me if you would be so kind : :! :?:

    50 # will work but you need to put other rock like utah lbtr ( lake bonnevile tufa rock) underneath it so it will seed the non-live rock. In 9 months to a year it will become live
