Dry rock and zeovit

[Rob62391]

I don't know if this is the right spot for this question, its not specifically a zeovit question. Anyway I plan on starting a zeovit system and it says to use live rock. I like the idea of dry rock so I ordered some marco shelf rock. 1, does anyone have any experience starting a zeo system using dry rock, and 2, i'm assuming that "curing" the rock before putting it into the tank and starting the 14 day zeovit cycle would be the smart thing to do? Just curious if anyone has any experience with this?

Good question. I was wondering how KZ solves this problem.

how's your tank doing？ Did you end up use kz with dry rock?

I did, I actually went with the marcorock from brs. I soaked it in r.o. water for a week then I put it in a brute can and used the dr tims bacteria and ammonia to give the rock at least some sort of bacterial cycle. let it sit in there for close to a month and just put it in the tank and got it going this weekend. Now i'm having an issue with my neptune auto top off, one that I had from day one on my last set up. i'm actually going to look for a thread on that and see if I cant figure it out.
