![]() First of all, welcome to Canreef .....good link above and some good advice from Brad..... To add to it tho....if you do use dry rock you need to keep in mind that it may take up to a year before that dead rock becomes live and a viable part of the tanks filtration.....using dead rock is a great way to avoid pests and keep your costs down but you then really need to be patient about your stocking.....

![]() True, use live rock will be cheaper.
As said above you have no idea what critters are In it, nor do you what bacteria, algae, or even worst coppe is in it. If you do go used, make sure you kill it first |
