![]() If you cooked it for a few months then you will have no problem with your LR.

I go for nice looking, light weight (porous) rock with a nice covering of coralline. I avoid boulder or brick shapes even as base rock. I've never cooked live rock. I've always just hand picked fully cured (smell it when & you'll know when it's not cured) live rock from the LFS & have never really had any issues. I had bubble algae once, I had aiptasia once, but nothing that required breaking down the tank or anything drastic to deal with. Everybody has a different preference I guess... . |

![]() i got for as porous rock as possible with as much stuff growing on it as possible. I look for unique macroalgae (stuff that ends up looking like broad leaves). I also look for encrusting corals because they often come back.
