I like this idea but makes me nervous for gobbies trying to dig sand. What if they chomp on some plastic?

You give me confidence with not curing it so extensively. I will be adding to tank right away! A quick clean off for any visible debris.

That's my plan I only have about 1" to 1-1/4" of sand than I'll slightly push the rock in

Noted! Thank you for the advise. If it comes relatively clean I will avoid this all together. If it comes in super dirty looking I will probably opt to do a full bath.

I can't tell if there is joking here :)

Maybe I'll vinegar bathe it for a bit. After my last fail I'm eager to get it going ! Don't get rock till Wednesday and I'm itching already ! I want all my plans laid out in advance

I will be avoiding the muriatic acid bath at all costs. I just don't want the headache of the fumes or destroying anything !

Did you put sand in or rock in first.. I am reading / hearing that there is a huge debate on what is supposed to go in first. Since my tank is 30 long I won't be able to stack rock so I don't fear that a fish will be able to undermine the rock to the point of being catastrophic. My real...

I mean it was live at some point. So I'm sure there are some dead stuff. But I'll just do plenty of water changes and skim the dead stuff

Howdy! So I came across a deal for 25 pounds of dry fiji live rock for a really good price due to my tank coming with a broken up from marine depot. As everyone knows my tank is empty right now and this rock needs to be cured as I presume.. can I cure it in my live tank as no other life...

Sand!! Sorry for the typo

Just as a side note : if anyone wants that sad.. possible antipasta filled $10 bucks Norther Jersey Bergen County

I will still have nightmares !

Just as quick as she was filled she's is empty Found this when emptying ? What is it I will have nightmares of it I am soaking socks in bleach ready for round 2!!

It was what the store had at the time and convenience Can I simply put the new cube in a five gallon bucket with salt water and a powerhesd to begin getting bacteria ? Or Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

28 bucks for 4 cubes - only need one cube for my tank Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

Wilson, if I go through getting all new rock and don't clean sand etc etc and it comes back i'd never let it go that i was lazy. Furthermore, I think that when I lemon squirted the big ones they exploded and went everywhere.

I have marine pure in my tank currently obviously going to trash that as it's probably filled with antipasta

You have a LOT of rock I want it

Wilson, I will probably go ahead and do this with the current rock but In the intermediate i want to get my tank to cycle ! Than I can introduce a new rock and remove a rock if I like one better that cleans up
