    if its being cured at the shop then its probably going to be too late to get live corals on it by the time it got to you.

    ive bought all my lr from them never had a problem with bad pests. my tank was supposed to be a FOWLR.i have another piece that i bought when i first cycled the tank, after about amonth a small colony of unkown polyps appeared look like star polyps.they have now been alive for 6months and growing. i only have 3-18 watt regular t-8 bulbs,2 aqua glow, and 1 actinic 420nm.ammonia-0,nitrite-0,nitrate-0,ph-8.3,temp 78-79,ive never added any supplements att all, not even buffer.ive never tested for anything besides the basic parims.i just do regular water changes every 2 wks. so after my g/f seen the new rock she insisted we get new lights this weekend.

    Nice Rock man what a great find !! Hey you should think about a metal halide fixture or a high output T8. I would definitely go back for more if I were you. 8)
