half the rock currently in my tank i grabbed from a storage bin in a friend's backyard. the rock was previously live and mixed in there with dirt, leaves and trimmings. i didn't acid wash i simply rinsed well and let it cycle without lights until parameters were ok.
I don't think this acid washing thing is needed at all but i'd totally love to try and the acid is cheap. Last edited by lastlight; 01-06-2015 at 04:07 PM.

I am not keen on chemicals, I would do a good rinse / hosing down and a long soak in fresh water, and probably introduce one piece of rock into the tank at a time. One way I read about doing this (it was meant to DIY rock) was to put rock in the tank of a toilet so it would automatically get fresh water rinses several times per day.
