Well I decided to just do it, i put the rock in my sink and pored boiling water over it until it was covered. I was expecting the smell to be terrible but it wasnt so bad, SOOOO I now have some cool dead rock. Its just under 15 pound so not to much. Im going to lay it out zap strap it how i like it, and then clean out the spare tank and re set it up with as much flow as i can get for a few weeks. Then i figure if i put some of my crushed coral and buy some more live rock which i was going to do anyways or use some of my good current live rock i should be able to reseed it, hopefully fairly fast?
