A bit Disappointing

[timv]

i have some live rock

[monocus]

if you want limestone as a foundation go to a landscaping place-also for lace rock or lava rock

Have you tried speaking with Jeff about this issue ?

If that doesn't work out, honestly, you're better off using live rock

I regret using base in my build, as do many others

I think you'll find far more people regretting the pests that came with their live rock...

Doubt that -lol

OK, so you think more people have problems related to using base rock (maybe a nutrient release if not properly prepared, take a long time to become "live") than problems related to using live rock (cost, die-off, aiptasia, majano, dinoflagellates, bryopsis, predatory hitchhikers, many other rarer/deadlier/more difficult to eradicate pests, and not to mention the destruction of live habitat in the ocean)?

OK then

Curious Mikellini what is your rock of choice if it does noy come from the ocean?

Yes, exactly what I think.

Ok then.
