    Update: No BIG updates LOL I plan on moving the rocks to a saltwater tub tomorrow for week while running po4 removing granules. Prolly for another week then It should be ready for the main tank. I just wanna lessen the amount of po4 introduce to the tank. I've just read that dead fiji rock can leach po4 (from dead organics) if not properly cooked.

    I will see how much money is left over after buying xmas gifts. Then re-evaluate if I want to buy the Vortech.
