I have about 7 pounds of LR in my 25 gal tank, with an additional 7 lbs of base rock. I'm planning to get much more in a little bit. The LR I already have has some spots that are turning white. When I bought it, it wasn't the best quality but it had some purple stuff on it. Is my LR dying? What do I need to do to keep it healthy looking. I want to know so that I can deside whether I should bother with higher quality LR or just stick with the cheaper stuff. I don't want to pay $6 a lb for something where all the organisms are just going to die.
This small lfs near my house sells really nice rock with all sorts of color and life on it. I would like to get a small amount to seed the other LR in my tank? What do I need to do to keep this color?
Right now I have 2 clownfish, standard lighting, no protein skimmer, if this helps.
