Im digging thru the dry rock i have in my basement ( forgot there was so much !) Looking for a couple nice pieces for my nano. I came across a Tub with enuf water in it to cover the rock that was inside. I totaly forgot that 3 or 4 months ago i put some dry rock in there with a couple seed rocks.

SO heres the low down.... Rock has been in an unheated basment in higher than normal SG with no power head.

Who thinks there will be Life ? Who thinks that its needing to be re-cycled ?

Im betting that its cycled and ready for use. Im putting some ammonia in tonight......
 
Btw the rock Was live at some point.... It was takin out of the original system and dryed out for a yr. then i got the rock. So there was plenty of crud on it to start a cycle. Its been in a bucket of fresh Salt mix ( aged 1 week) for about 3 hrs now i tested it and got 0 back ...... I bought some Ammonia but when i shake the bottle its staying foamy. So im not going to use it. Ill throw a chunk of LR from my reef in there tonight. just for good measure.
