So I just got done bleaching my rocks for 2 weeks and today I pressure washed them only to find out alot of calcium build up got torn off which looks like a good thing as the rocks look more porous now, wish I did this prior to the bleach. So my question is should I bleach again for 1 week? And also even after thoroughly rinsing out my brute tub I can still smell bleach from it, is this normal? Thanks.
 
I don’t think you need to bleach again. The bleach killed everything if you left it in for 2 weeks.

Usually after bleaching, rinsing, and letting the tub dry out, it does not smell like bleach anymore.
 
No need to bleach again, I did the same process... I bleach for 1-2 weeks then rinse them and placed on a different tub for about another week or so with ro water... changing the water every 3 days or so....I might over did it but I took measures. Never had problems.

Would it be safe to put back in the same tub with RO water and let it soak for a couple days?
 
Same tub would be ok, just rinse it good... but if it was me I would soak it with new ro water every 2-3 days for a week or so... let that bleach residue disappear, wouldn't want any bleach in your main display after it has been set up....
