    Hi I have been wanting to add some tonga branches to add some interest to my tank. I have 20 lbs of live rock in my 29g Biocube and I'm wondering if it would be OK to just rinse it well and add a small amount of dry tonga from BRS maybe 9lbs into my tank or if I would have to cure it.

    My tank has been going for about 4.5 months and I've got fish, coral, shrimp and all that.. Just a bit worried because I've been looking it up and have gotten some mixed ideas on the subject.
    Thanks.

    rinse it and put it in.... (so long you trust the source (BRS is cool)) I don't think you can really put in too much. Go for it! Then put up a pic ;)

    Hey thanks Peredhil. I was thinking it would be cool to get a good camera at this point. But I am thinking more and more after buying so much stuff.. that I should just get a friend that has a decent camera. :D
