newaqua Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Hi all. Is it ok to clean dry, dead, coral rock in fresh water before I begin to cure it? It is really really dusty and stuff, and would like to avoid getting it in the water. Also, can I do a complete water change once it has cured, like a 100% change, will it be ok or not?

reptilez Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 I washed mine off with fresh water quickly then let it dry then began curing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Yes give it blast with the hose to get the dust off. Even scrub it a bit. No worries and yes feel free to do a 100% wc once cycled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newaqua Posted February 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thanks Guys, another question also. Does anyone ever replace their rock in their tank, like if the porus rock slowly begins to fill up, therefore not providing the filtration as it once did.

newaqua Posted February 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Any ideas about rock 'filling up' over time??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 if your tank and rock is functioning properly, bacteria, pods etc then it won't fill up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
