I know, I know ...
I wish I could have found about 75lbs back in Jan/Feb
There wasn't any rock to be found when I was curing it
Now what I did find is cured and the tank is 'scaped

I have a small amount of space in the sump for maybe another 20-30lbs stuffed in but it won't stay clean with the arrangement. It will collect detritus, but I have already been thinking about it.
I don't want to re-scape just yet

Thanks for the input Flash
