Adding more rock

[daso]

Hi all!

I have 50 lbs of live rock in a 50 gallon breeder tank. I am wanting to add more rock--dead or alive. What are some of the ways I could do that? and what is your experience with it, if any?

I reccomend adding dead rock to avoid introducing any hitchhikers. When I did it, I added a bunch of dead rock to my 90g. If I was to do it again, I would soak it in RO water or something to ensure no phosphates get leaked into the tank. I think some phosphates leached from the dryrock the first time.
