the only reason I cured my
dry frock in a tub is because I ran out of tanks
you could by all means after after curing place it dry and play with the
rock
for as long as needed till you get the look you need.
I am planning to adding the water from the tub to the main system when its time to move the
rock.
Nitrifying bacteria has a better survival rate out in the open with wet
rock
than any other pod simply of their size.
