I think I will be selling most of the rocks off once I have decided on my scaping but until then I may need to pick up one more Rubbermaid. Thanks for sharing, Tyler.

Weekly testing, and WCs as needed, but you know this
That's all that comes to mind

You mentioned aeration
I did this when I cured my rock and it kept the pH up
I did mine in the dark, and my sponges took off, but I lost a lot of life as I was curing, so not feeding
I think I can manage that.
Thanks again, Greg.
