Anyone purchased tampabaysaltwater.com live rock?

Keith you do need a CITES permit for the rock and sand that wish to bring across the boarder. You can contact Richard Labossier at the custom locally. Call me I will give you the number. The reason that you can not find it in the CITES paper work is it is not clearly defined as live rock. What they look for it if it has any life on on it. Any life at all. They will check to see if it has porites if it does it is a cities item. If you are caught trying to bting it accross the fine effective April 1st 2002 is a whooping $2000.00 for a first offence. You will also have a smuggling charge and your rock will be confiscated. You will also want to contact a lawyer as you will have a court apperance to deal with. There was a local store here that tried it. They are no longer is business. If you have any more questions feel free to call me.
