Look for miniature fan worms and the like; they'll spread to the rest of the rock once you have them in your tank.
So once I have the sand and rock in the tank, what would be the best steps of helping it along? Just leave it and observe? Feeding? Do I feed the live rock? what type of food if I do have to? I am a true Newbie! Brad
