I am buying 500lbs of LR from somebody local. (Dont worry Steph, I got a perfect match of male and female!
)
Anyways, I can't pass this deal up, I am getting it at $2/lb. It's covered in Coraline, and does have some hair algae, and cyano right now.
BUT! I am not setting up my 220 until around July/August. So until then I am going to put it all in tubs in my basement with a heater, light, and my Koralia 4, and other powerheads.
What else should I do for it? Do I need to do regular water changes? Isn't this LR going to be covered in algae if sitting for 2-3 months??
I want to keep the coraline alive, it's covered and looks great (a problem I have with my current rock) I will not be needing it all, probably selling it to break even to folks on here that need a break on the darn cost of ROCK! Anyways, what else should I do to keep it stored, and still alive??
