Default Cleaning live rock and sand
If I rinse live rock and sand in fresh water (same temp), will that kill the bacteria and cause a cycle?

I am resetting a tank, and would like to clean the rock and sand a bit, before rearranging it. The sand is actually pretty clean (been vacuuming it), am more concerned about the live rock.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
