    Great start but are you setting your rocks directly on on top of the sand bed?

    Nice choice for sand and powerheads. 3 eh .. nice.

    If that's BRS pukani, don't do what I did. You want to cure the heck out of it in a tub of salt water without lights. I've only rinsed mine before setting up my DT, and track rock was leeching major nutrients for at least 6..8 weeks. Never had such a bad cyano outbreak as I did with this rock.

    Good tip :)
    These are the reef saver rocks. Im not sure if these come as "dirty" as pukanis do. I was told to just cycle in my tank so i think thats what i will do....
