Exactly as other reviews said By Reefmonger on 5/9/13
Reefmonger would recommend this product to a friend
I only got 10 pounds to see how it ships and what it looks like. Also got 15 pounds of other type of rock. Pieces showed up in tack and nice hand picked pieces. Bulk reef supply definitely looked at these pieces as if selecting for their tank.

Best rock ever By KCJ on 4/29/13
KCJ would recommend this product to a friend
The rock is very light so you only need 1/2 to 3/4lb per gallon. I have a 75gal and I ordered 60lb but only used about 40. Best rock for the money and the look out there.

Was concerned about purchasing rock online without hand selecting the pieces myself. Very pleased with what I received. All great pieces - all intact. Think I actually received a few extra lbs but your results may vary. Very satisfied.

I've had 70 lbs in a Rubbermaid bin cycling for 4 months. I've read several threads about this rock leaching phosphates but patience should overcome that. Worth it for sure.

Ordered 50 lbs., asked for a mixture of sizes. What I received was so far above my expectations. I am now a BRS customer for life. Whoever BRS has assigned to select rock for customers needs a raise, because you my friend, ROCK! No pun intended. Love the rock, just go ahead and buy it if you are on the fence... you won't be let down, I assure it.

Great looking rock, but lots of die off By COLE on 4/13/13

Probably the best looking rock you can buy, and as the other reviews state it is very porous and light. But it does have quite a lot of die off.

This is truly the best example of an online purchase that exceeds your expectations. The piece of rock that I received was a better specimen that what I had hoped for. These guys don’t mess around. You get more than you pay for and being a veteran of purchasing aquarium supplies over the internet, I can testify that I finally found the best company around.

Pukani is awesome By Steve on 4/12/13
Steve would recommend this product to a friend
Received my 30 lbs and got two large pieces about basketball size and several softball/football pieces. The large rocks I easily carved tunnels in to but took time to make sure not to split the rock. Flattening the bottom is more of a challenge as angle and center of gravity are hard to eyeball on odd shaped rock. Overall good buy.

I ordered 20 lbs of pukani and 50 lbs of reef saver. I really think they cover about the same area. Fast delivery, rock looked great with just a little dirt, and hardly any break off. Although I liked the reef saver more, I will order a mix of both again, they both add their own character!

I couldn't decide between this rock and the Reef Saver. I am glad I went with this one as I love the look of it plus I got a lot of rock for the 65 lbs I ordered. One thing is you have to be careful with it as pieces will break off, but overall awesome rock

Wow, but Stinky! By Jeffery on 3/9/13
Jeffery would recommend this product to a friend
I will admit that I've never seen rock so gorgeous in a reef tank my entire life. I ordered 50 lbs with instructions that I needed 2 big pieces for my 200g reef. I got 2 huge pieces prob about 30 lbs a piece, more than I ordered! Pourous and natural shapes! Sawed off a little to make a flat bottom and sweet! However, this rock is foul when it arrives and appears to be straight from the ocean! You must cure and clean this rock! I left it for two weeks in a 45g brute with fresh RO water and had to change it four times! I even used two rio 2800 power heads in the brute to move water around! The stuff is foul! If u put in an established tank without cleaning be prepared for everything to die! However, if u are patient and allow for it to cure for at least two weeks with frequent water changes the payoff is huge! I'm ordering another huge piece today!

Fantastic rock but don't forget to cure it! By Sean on 3/7/13
Sean would recommend this product to a friend
The reviews here are spot on. It's fantastic rock and extremely porous. To give you an idea of how porous, I filled a 5 gallon bucket with this rock and then filled it with water... It still held over 4 gallons! A little bit goes a long way with this stuff - it's incredibly light compared to other dry rock and certainly live rock. If you have a nano tank, like I do, don't worry about the rock pieces not being small enough - a few hits with a hammer and the larger rock pieces will split into smaller ones.
HOWEVER, and this is the most important part, like ALL dry rock (not just BRS), it will leech phosphates for a while. I recommend soaking for a few days with a product called SeaKlear to remove phosphates from the outer layers.
As always, shipping was fast and the packaging was excellent. Great job BRS!

This is the best rock I ever seen. I order 30 lbs for my 36 gallon tank bowfront. U looks great on my tank. I was a little disappointed because they ship 1 huge rock lol ... I was expecting at least 2 big pieces, after I worked on it for 2 hours I got what I wanted, " probably was my fault cause I didn't specified what I wanted" @ the end of the day ... I'm very happy with the outcome :)

Incredible looking and super light weight Rock By Dale on 2/13/13
Dale would recommend this product to a friend
This stuff is definitely the way to go. Easy to fit and glue pieces together (I used silicon caulk to glue it). Easy to mill and cut. Since it is dry you can take all the time in the world to fit together a masterpiece aquascape. Shapes and texture are incredible to look at! So light that 250 lbs was enough for my 360 gal reef. Still giddy about finding this stuff !

Large, Showy Pieces that Exceeded Expectations By Ron on 2/13/13
Ron would recommend this product to a friend
I ordered 30 pounds, and received 5 unexpectedly large pieces that were clearly the fossil remains of ancient hard corals. However, they were very open and porous in structure, being relatively lightweight for their large size, while still very structurally sound.
I was actually expecting smaller pieces suitable for base rock, and wanted the open structure only for better biological filtering. But the pieces I received, once colonized by coralline algae and other reef life, would make show-quality live-rock for a large reef tank display.
I almost wish that I had specified when ordering that I wanted these for use under live rock in a smallish (75 gallons) tank, and thus gotten smaller pieces. These large pieces are far too nice to break up and use for base rock. I will probably save these for making a centerpiece reef in another, larger tank.

Order 25 pounds to redo my aquascape, and all I can say is wow. This rock is great, light, lots of holes and shapes and large pieces.

This rock is the only way to go. Very light. I would say 1/2 lb per gallon would be a pretty good amount to build a reef. I asked for large pieces and got some the size of basketballs with hardly any rubble. I wish I would of known about BRS when I first started reefing. Spread the word.

I ordered 50 pounds of this rock. The order had large and medium sized pieces of all shapes. The rock was also nice and clean as advertised.
-Aquascaping this stuff is a joy. Although, you may need some reef epoxy due to it's porous nature. Because, I don't see drilling this stuff as an option for rod placement.

This rock truly deserves 5 stars By charles on 2/13/13
charles would recommend this product to a friend
Over 12 years, I've purchased live/dry rock from various sources and have always been happy with the products. Well, I just didn't know any better. The BRS Pukani Dry Eco Rock is so much better than anything I've used. I never knew rock could be so light! I waited for a very long time to see this stuff in stock, and my patience was definitely rewarded.
This Pukani rock has the most shape and character of any rock I've purchased or seen (even better than the pics on the BRS website). It's like looking at the grain pattern of fine wooden furniture. Each piece has so much to appreciate on its own, which almost makes me feel guilty to think about gluing frags to the rockwork. It's just beautiful stuff, and I'm not going to use anything else in the future.

I received my Pukani Rock today and was very surprised at what I found. I recieved many large pieces as well as smaller pieces. To me it was the perfect mix of large and small for the amount of what I ordered. I ordered fifty pounds and it was all I needed to fill my 90 gallon and leave a little room for items to be placed on the sand if need be. I will be placeing another order soon for my 37 gallon. Outstanding purchase!
