Hey guys
So my mate is shutting his tank down, and I'm taking his stuff.
Live rock, corals, fish and so on.
His tank is in great condition with. I issues at all.
I was wondering as my tank is also established, would it be ok to put his stuff starting into my tank?
He had a 130 litre tank and mine is 350 litres.
I will be adding to my tank about 10-15kg of live rock.

How will this go do you think?
I really have no options to be honest.

I agree with Nano. Just check on any am spikes and have water on hand in case You need to do a water change. I'm curious on what livestock your getting. Please let us know.
Also where on this wonderful earth is Byford?

Overall, it would be fine adding his stuff to your tank. But, the devil is in the details here. What kinds of corals and other critters? I would make sure things were healthy first and I'd also QT certain items and dip others. As for the live rock, your current tank probably has the amount of live rock it needs, adding more can cause issues like hindering flow and transferring unwanted hitchhikers. IMHO, I'd leave the live rock. If a coral is on a piece of rock, I'd take it off the rock.

I will have to put the live rock in guys, as a lot of the coral is attached to the pieces.
