Default QUESTION ? please help!

Can anyone out there give me advice about how i should preserve my live rocks in my 50 gallon tank. Everything unforntunately had died off a while ago thru power outages. I hadn't replenished my stocks because i took this opportunity to find someone to install hardwood floors ...which BTW still hasn't been done. My powerjets gave up 2 months ago. Is the stagnet water
harmful for the environment?

You'll need to go through the curing process again, once you're ready to start the tank back up

You should stick them in a dark container with a heater and powerhead. They'll stay happy and healthy like that for a long time as long as you throw a cocktail shrimp in there once a week or so.

Default re curing your like rock

myka has the right idea, use a garbage can of salt water and a heater with a good strong power head And don't be scared to move and flip the rocks around in there to get good flow around all the rock with no dead spots
GOOD LUCK!!
