You're not going to find many sources of cheap dead coral skeletons -- as far as I know the big dead coral curio trade has mostly dried up (I think they may be illegal to import now).

I haven't seen dead coral skeletons for sale in a LFS for about 10yrs.

Artificial coral is expensive, really, anywhere you buy it from.

All I can suggest is looking at That Pet Place. Prices are lower, and shipping won't cost you 40$ in itself.

if your just looking for dead corals, check around with your local reef club, or find a thread where someone just crashed a tank, they would probably mail them too you for cost.

Lava rock wouldn't be my first choice as a saltwater decor. Not only are those things dangerous to your tank (being lava rock you never quite know what elements are in them)... but their surfaces are usually algae magnets.

yea, i see that in your description, i thought pittsburg was rather close, and the eerie club seems located near you too, i guess its not close enough though. still worth a try of digging around their sites looking for skeletons.
