Brad thanks for a great thread.

Following your thought above. I started to think about this. There are so many places we now get LR from. A lot is farmed line stone. Other Rock is from a dead or deep reef. I'm wondering if the good porous stuff is becoming harder and hard to find.
I have already been hitting the books but have not hit on the article that started my understanding that LR alone does not complete the nitrogen cycle. In a closed reef system.

OK so I wasn't able to dig up anything concrete yet. But I'll be back into the books tomorrow.
