The reason I am starting from dry and fresh is I don't want any of my bad hitchhikers in my new system......just a reminder.

You could tie in the extra tank you have with the left over rock you have from me as added filtration or a cryptic tank.

I suggest drying the old rock and sell it for a good $$ or maybe some FOWLR folks would buy it the way it is..

Okie doke Guys. I surrender. I will sell it. Anyone want some good rock for your fishies only. Comes with bubble algae crops... some red turf algae crop, {my urchins are mowing it down}, and a bagazzillion aiptasia I was keeping for the copperband in quarintine but will never buy...

sigh... what I wouldn't do for a time machine so I could go back and not add that one frag of frogspawn with 2 tiny little bubbles of bubble algae on it. Now I have over a thousand, some the size of a mandarine orange.

You're making the right choice. Those little nasties can grow on nothing more than your hatred for them.

Yup. And I could usually control it on my regular old reef rock. But after adding a couple pieces of Pukani and the bubble algae getting into all those little holes, forget it. Must be a billion of them inside it.

Stupid emeralds....................Stupid peppermint shrimp....Pthhhhhhh

and this tank is going to be 90% Pukani. If its ever gets in there I gonna blow it up. And as the late John Candy use to say.."it blowed up real good"....
