Curing Live Rock for Saltwater Aquariums

 

Video Description

In today's episode we are going to do a short demo on how to properly cure your live rock for reef tanks. Uncured live rock whether it be dry or wet typically has some organic material on the surface of the rock that we would like to remove before adding the rock to the tank. A proper cure process will help you avoid many of the more common pit falls new reef tanks and their owners commonly experience. Disclaimer

    If I'm adding some fuji dry live rock to an already established tank, do you still have to run it through a 4-week cure cycle or is it that you would especially want to run it through the 4-week cycle to make sure it doesn't disrupt the tank parameters?

    thanks,

    Wade

    Bulk Reef Supply Hey Wade,
    We would always suggest cycling the rock in a separate container before adding it to an existing tank. Its best to play it safe so you don't disrupt the existing tank!
