$1M Worth of Live Rock Stolen
By Luke • Jun 29th, 2009 • Category: In The News, RamblingsWow. This is pretty amazing. Tons and tons of live rock stolen. Maybe it was the aliens and their spaceships hauling this stuff away. Hopefully the bandits are caught.
Sometime in the past 18 months, Miami boat captain Neal Novak told investigators someone stole about 300,000 pounds of decorative live rock he had planned to harvest for saltwater aquariums and reef tanks at his aqua farm three miles off Islamorada.
Authorities are taking the case seriously.
”As far as I know, this is a first in the Keys,” said officer Bobby Dube, spokesman for the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission for more than 20 years. “We’ve caught people bringing in live rock, but not stealing from someone’s aqua farm.”
