My advice, shop around IM sure there are others out there that keep good quality LR.
Ditto.
I search every LFS in my little town. Usually only one has good looking rock ( always the same one) and usually it's Fiji. But, if one of the other stores 'accidentally' gets a good shipment, I'm picking through it. Also, the stores sometimes get rocks from a reefer's tank, like me, if they are constantly culling the rocks in search of the 'perfect aquascape'. All the stores in town know me and don't mind me digging around in their tanks. It's worth the extra dollars to me, to know what I'm buying.
