Hate it. Don't like paying $8/lb for liverock and damn sure don't like waiting for seed rock to cure.
I just keep a constant eye out for folks looking to get out, then I'll buy theirs for $1-2/lb. Cheaper, easier, quicker. I'm not a fan of an empty tank and used rock accelerates the process by a month or more.
