Live Rock and Lights
Hello,
Another way is to measure ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. You'll notice that ammonia will spike first, then nitrite...then nitrate. Eventually, all three will converge to zero. When all three are zero, then the lr is cured.
Since the "liveness" of live rock comes in many flavours, it is difficult to tell how long your tank+rock will take to cure. It might be as quick as a day or three months (mine took three months, but it was really really bad lr @$2 a pound...).
As for your lighting...don't know. Try comparing your tank to other reefers and to good LFS tanks. What types of LPS or SPS would you like to keep ?
Joshua, I heard that you are trying to sell some soft corals. Do you still have any left ?
