TBS is the oldest working aquaculture Live Rock Farm. The site is located in the nutrient rich water off Tarpon Springs known as the Sponge Captial of the world. Harvested with care, our Living Rock and Live Sand always travel submerged to preserve life forms vital for your aquarium's health.

Why Our Rubble is the Best:

  • Sustainably Ocean Harvested
  • Diverse Microorganisms
  • Preferred for Biofiltration
  • Ships Submerged

  • Refugium Builder
  • No Curing
  • TBS Treasure Chest is literally a box of Rocks shipped to your door!

Rubble Rock is a great multipurpose live rock.   

Looking for natural biofiltration media?  Then consider Rubble Rock.  These little live rocks can be placed in media bags, filter chambers or sumps.  Plain, porous and simple on the outside surface but packed with goodness on the inside.  Our rock provides denitrifying bacteria, microscopic clean-up crews and a stress reducing natural environment for your aquarium inhabitants.  Rubble is the perfect live rock to add to your overflow box, seed a refugium or add to the display.  Rubble is an excellent venue for gluing coral frags, too!

Rubble fits into the back chambers of Innovative Marine tanks, BioCubes, Fiji Cubes, Fluvals, JBJs and others.

We suggest 2 pounds of live rock per gallon (rubble, nano, regular sized).  1" to 3".

Ocean Aquacultured Rock; No Bottle Bacteria Used Here!

TBS Live Rocks are a visual feast of shapes, sizes, and colors. Bahamian, Philippine, Trinidad, Florida quarried, vintage Pukani and reef friendly Walt Smith are found on the lease site.  Walt Smith Reef Rock is the predominate rock chosen for its sustainability, ability to attract and host life, and for its easily stackable shapes.
Ocean aquacultured Live Rock provides a natural looking environment for your inhabitants and an unseen health benefit for your system.  Tiny holes and crevasses provide a refuge for microscopic critters like pods, filter feeders and other invertebrates to multiply, and move water through the rock.  Water slowly pulsing through tiny tunnels inside rock aids the denitrifying process.
Planting and harvesting are done by hand. From receiving to shipping, each piece is handled with care.  Rocks are selected on the ocean bottom and carefully loaded in mesh baskets where they are hauled up to the boat.  They are inspected and placed in seawater filled barrels for the boat ride in.  The fully submerged rock arrives at the warehouse and is placed in large holding systems filled with natural sea water.  Moderate lighting is provided to maintain life forms until it is then shipped within 3-14 days.  This extra care preserves a plethora of life forms that make ocean live rock vastly different from other live rock.

Just the Facts Jack About Sustainably Collected Base Rock

Flow– Consider best case water flow scenarios in your system; rock placement, wavemakers, wave boxes and smart pumps.  Move detritus from crevasses by turkey basting live rock weekly.
Life Support Required– TBS Live Rock will arrive submerged in seawater, carefully bagged, and held in an insulated box.  This is a perishable product.  It is necessary to have a functioning aquarium upon arrival for live sand & live rock.
No Curing- Ocean aquacultured rock shipped submerged should not be cured, it is neither sick nor dying.
Possibilities- Due to the multitude of varying life forms on our live rock, you may encounter a pest or predator.  Consult our extensive Hitchhiker section for information. Keep in mind, not all life can be sustained in an aquarium.  Certain critters that depend upon an ocean environment may not survive.  We do our best to eliminate pest, predators and potential demise.
The Sea has Seasons- Live rock goes through seasons as the Gulf cools in the winter and warms in the summer.  Macro algae, sponges, corallines and various lifeforms wax and wane according to seasonal temperatures.
Weather Dependent- We make every attempt to collect and ship weekly, but sometimes mother nature says No.  Your patience is appreciated.
Shipper Abuse or Customer Neglect- In the event of box abuse caused by shipping carriers.  Contact us immediately.  We are not responsible for orders left at the destination air cargo hub or forgotten outside your door.
