JAF's 125 reef in progress

Wow, very nice job!
My Dad is aiming for that look in his 125 gallon we just started. Can I ask how many pounds of rock are in your tank? We just bought 100 pounds for his.

The big pieces you see that are still white(ish) were 50 lbs from MarcoRocks.com. The other rock I bought in several batches when I had my 55 gallon tank, and I don't remember how many pounds each time. But I think 100 pounds should be good, depending on the type of rock. Some rock that's more porous weighs less so you don't need as much. I also have maybe 20 lbs in the sump for a little extra biofiltration.
