Re: Yes! Everybody who likes new pics of a new tank

Actually, there is no live rock! But yes, I am going to the LFS today to pick up a lot! I don't know if I will keep them; I will keep at least one probably...

Re: Yes! Everybody who likes new pics of a new tank

I read somewhere that the water should be through the cycle to add live rock. Is that true? I kinda wanna add it today and get rid of the volcanic rock. And how do you know how much live rock to put in?
