I found a few good deals off Amazon lately. I am doing a budget build at the moment, and have been looking for all the best deals. Just today I bought from BRS, SaltwaterAquarium.com, and KB Reefs. I found a few things on Amazon as well though- that were just too good to pass up. I HOPE.
I bought name brand salt, 200 gallons/$50; and a 1700 pump for $42- it's working great for my skimmer- last week. Today I got dry rock, 40lbs/$53, and 12-Inch base dry rock, 40lbs/$46.
The salt, is pretty much a solid buy. The live rock... well... there are mixed reviews on there. Mostly good. But- I AM- taking a chance. I have bought other stuff (non-aquarist) off Amazon, and it can be real hit or miss sometimes.
I would like to avoid the misses, and get the wins; and it'd be great if this thread can help anyone else out as well. So, if you have a product that worked out really well, or not so well... Post a comment. Thanks in advance!
