Option D borrow the wrasse from Wayne, he has too many anyway. Leopard will probably live longer in your tank.

I would have to kill Wayne to get a wrasse from him I have a leopard anyway, it doesn't go near the corals.
I have a yellow coris and secretive reserved. Just need to find peppermint shrimp.

Another month down, decided to start growing out some cyano, lots available, free shipping with any order -lol

Growth is slower than I'd like, likely due to PO4 levels higher than optimum. Colors are good on some pieces, lacking on others, some pieces got tossed. Overall, just waiting another 4 - 8 weeks, if I'm not happy with it I'll get a box of real rock.
Seriously regret using dead rock, most difficult tank build I've ever done.

4-8 weeks more and your rock will be real!

That's what everyone tells me, so I'll wait until the end of November to make any decisions, but my gut instinct is that no, it will still be dirty sludgy rock full of decay.
I've built a lot of tanks over the years, and I thought I knew better, but went with popular opinion and used cheap dead rock. That was a mistake. It may clean up, but I'm budgeting for a box of rock now
