The Live Rock Company Creating Aquacultured Reefs In The Florida Keys.

Sept. 28, 2013 - PRLog -- Our family started in the live rock business years ago and then owned a saltwater aquarium store in Miami for years.  We are now involved exclusively in live rock aquaculture and know what people want to put into their reef aquariums.  Our one acre live rock aquaculture site is leased from the State of Florida and is located in pristine waters adjacent to a natural coral reef.  Our aquaculture site is actually within the boundaries of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.  At The Live Rock Company we control the entire process all the way directly to you.  This ensures that we deliver the best product possible to our customers.

We have supplied live rock to universities, research facilities, wildlife sanctuaries and public aquariums across the United States, including Harvard University and SeaWorld.  In June, 2011 NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas ordered 200 pounds of our live rock for two tank systems it is conducting research on.  We are proud to say NASA was extremely excited and happy with the live rock they received.

We deposit only hand-selected rocks on our site of the finest porous limestone, a natural calcium carbonate rock.  We try to harvest our live rock from our aquaculture site once that section of the reef displays excellent Coralline Algae growth but before the live rock is "overgrown".  This helps assure us we produce what we believe is the best live rock available to actually place into your saltwater aquarium.  We consistently maintain and cultivate our reef and our 31 foot Contender is the perfect rock boat.  All live rock is cured at our facility immediately after being harvested from the ocean.
