    There's always a chance of getting hitchhikers. Even when purchasing cured LR there's a chance of getting hitchhikers. You never know what is living in the LR.

    The decision is entirely up to you. IMO If it's a new tank I would put the rock in and let it cycle.

    Bruce,

    If you have questions about curing LR, please start a new thread. Let's stick to the topic at hand here please. ;) :)

    Well I just ordered from Reefer Madness. 10 frags for $160 shipped! Dr. Macs is closed on Wednesday and I already took thrusday to be here when the coral shows up. So far so good from RM. ;D

    Does RM do it's own propagation of corals? I know Dr. Mac does some...I am curious....

    Let us know how your order is. ;D Have a fun Thursday! YAY! :tongue4:

    No, you misunderstood my question (or perhaps I phrased it poorly)

    Does RM propagate what it sells...not just buy it from other places to resell.

    Here is Dr. Mac's link describing the farm and how all the frags he sells, he grew...

    http://www.drmaccorals.com/sys-tmpl/retailoutlet/

    I wonder how many places are actually doing this..? :)
