pukani the best for pods?

[Bakedpwn]

Hey there, i plan a lot of pod eating fish and was wondering if pukani was the best for pod population and breeding due to its large surface area and many holes.
I have used billy reef connection rock and it worked but i learned it was not very "holey" because of where they get it.

a separate refugium for pods would be best for breeding where the fish cant get to them.

Oh yes! Pukani is great, has the most area and tiny holes for pods to hide and breed. Also small caves for your little pod eating fish to hang out in. I don't know why anyone would even consider any other type of rock. It's just the best period!

I added 50 pounds 6 months ago and request larger rocks and I got three beautifully large rocks. Amazing stuff. It's like a giant matrix of holes and small caves. With rock the size I got there has to be millions of pods in the interior completely out of harms way so they will never be able to complete deplete them not even considering the area where they can live and breed. I think the rock is perfect in every way.

Reef saver might as well be a concrete block with a few large holes drilled in it. You get double if not triple or more surface area with Pukani per pound.

Pukani has so many holes and crevices that fish can't get to house pods is unreal, at night my tank is swarming with them. I have a scooter blenny who so far has not made a dent in the population

I see plenty of hiding spots.

How and how long did it take for you to cure (remove phosphates) from your Pukani Rock?
That's the only thing that has made me hesitant about buying it. Also, since there is no bacteria on Pukani Rock like there is on live rock, won't it take triple the time to get through a full tank cycle? Do you have any pictures of it in your tank?
