A New Beginning

In this video I discuss why I removed the CaribSea Life Rock in my 187g reef tank and replaced it with some Haitian live rock that was in my cryptic sump.

What do you dose for such excellent mustache growth?

[mmccown]

Those Jebao pumps are legit! I just added 2 to my tank. I have 2 mp40s but they have priced me out over the last few years.

Good luck Keith. I know you have been struggling with that Cyano for a long time now.
Cheers,
Chris

I can confirm this. My entire scape is actual Fiji live rock, that one piece of Caribsea life rock is the only damn rock with red cyano.

[BackWoodsReefer]

Looks great! I need a frag of the that hammer.

[JTReef]

I like the scape better than the first.
Nice!

I solve that same issue I bleached those same rocks. After time I used them in Dt never had an issue with them and coraline algae grew within 4 months.

[MoeReefs]

I have my life rock in a bin in the backyard. It grows mosquitos great!!

[janir]

Are you using kalkwasser? What kalkwasser brand?

[aquamind]

Im at the 18 month mark with my Liferock, has been a nightmare process. Tank finaly crashed completely. Gonna start swapping it out with real live rock as much as I can afford.

[scottzinn]

Have you added any copepods or ampipods

[deanfielding]

The ‘concrete’ type rock I really do think is a bad idea. I don’t know how that can be called live rock really.
