If you soak in the toilet you might get some other contaminantes in. lol

Hundreds of people on reef central use them and have had no problems.

Think that will cause a nitrate spike?

You can buy 25 frag tiles from bulk reef supply for 4 dollars

i use the tumbled marble tiles form home depot there 1inchx1inch peel them off the sheet rub off the glue and good to go no need to soak for a month . There cheap like 8 bucks for 140 and i have an ocd frag tank and everything has to be in neat little rows with no spaces so plugs and rubble just dont work .Once the zoas grow out a bit you wont ever see the tiles anyway.

He is using the tiles as a major portion of his live rock. Plus I think the Zoa's look really cool on the tiles (and his colony of Rasta's is Unbelievable!!)

I've thought of spread the little 1" tiles on the bottom of my tank instead of sand. Would make Zoa fragging real easy.
