Well, online there are a few different positions that are all described as cooking and curing..... there is definitely some overlap when it comes to the final goal.
I am by no means done yet. The acid wash was to remove PO4 on the outside of the rock & the bleach to kill everything. Then I'll start it cycling and changing water to try to remove bound nutrients.
For my rock thats in the tank water already this process has also just started and we will see how it ends up. There are more water changes on the horizon...
Since I'm not cooking it, what to you is cooking your rock and don't try to convince me to put it in the oven....
