Well I received my LifeReef sump, refugium and Ca reactor today and they all look outstanding. My only concern is the skimmer the system shipped with. It is a venturi with a self cleaning venturi. I've talked to a few people that say they work great but I kinda feel like its an old technology which has been improved on. However, I wont judge it until I see how it does.

Tank and marco rock should be in mon-wed!! As soon as I get the tank I will start work on the stand. Very excited!!! My kids are going nuts with anticipation as well. Since it took so long for the Marco to ship, I'm going to give this 50 lbs a muriatic bath to help speed curing. I likely will only be able to cure it 3-4 weeks after the bath. The rest of my 200 lbs is cured and ready to go.

Does anyone know if dead marco rock has to be cured in saltwater, or can I use fresh?
