live rock
 

After some bad advice and a tank crash I am starting over.I have 240 pounds of live rock that needs to be cooked for two months.$4.00 per poud.Has what I think is brown diatom algie and some hair algie.

Is that all that is wrong with it is the algae? What's the story behind it all? Did you ever treat the tank with copper?

That's it.No copper.The story is simple.I hired a mechanic to frame my house.

what is wrong with diatoms? i got alot of it (new tank) the crabs seem to like it

Was choking out my tank,and nitrates were through the roof.Any how it is all in a heated tub with power head and any peices worth salvaging have been given to a friend.Three differant types of xenia and green star polups were doing fine,as well as a coral banded shrimp and clean up crew.

How big was the tank? what type of live rock was it when you purchased?

who gave you what bad advice?

$4 per pound seems expensive for rock that needs to be cooked for two months.

What does that have to do with your rock getting algae? I'm lost...
