LIVE ROCK REJUVENATE

[Bubba002]

Removed 10 lb live rock covered with GHA. Have soaked it in food grade peroxide for 3 weeks, GHA still remained, scrubbed with toothbrush, and rinsed with very hot water, dried out now. What do I have to do to make it good to return to tank?

I'd say rinse again with RODI and add a dose of dechlorinator to the tank for peace of mind

Welcome! I’m guessing most of the gha is off. Put it back in. By a good phosphate test. Invest in some gfo, Phos gaurd or a Phos pad. Then go natural with snails and crabs. Keep on it. You will win!

What percentage of peroxide? That sounds like it's gonna be dead rock pretty soon, if it isn't already.

Welcome!

Post #2 and #10 already have good info, and post # 16 makes me giggle. There is a dinosaur movie that has a line about 'life always finds a way' ... Jurassic Park reference

Glad you joined and good luck. I used Vibrant and manual removal. Now we have a MUCH stricter introduction policy as I never want that to come back into my tank
