LIVE ROCK AFTER LIVE SAND

FREAKINRICAN69 · Apr 30, 2019

Hello All,

This is my first time posting and had a quick question while i'm doing so. Please be nice on this novice.

I setup a nano 13.5 for my wifey and wondering if it's ok to introduce dry live rock after the fact without affecting the tank etc? Please advise at your convenience. I'm used to bigger tanks and i'm a returning hobbyist that was misled for years so i'm going slow and steady!

It’s best to cure it then add it because it can start a cycle again.

Welcome to the reef! I, too, would cure it. Dump it in a bucket with a power head and a heater. Dump some bacteria in there and forget about it for a few months..
