cure dry rock

Hello, I’ve been researching which bleach to use to disinfect rocks. So far this is the closest thing to 100% sodium hypochlorite I could find and without scents or “low splash”. On the ingredients list it shows “Water, Sodium Hypochlorite, and Sodium Hydroxide” would this be safe to disinfect...

So I purched a 180 tank used that came with 180 pound of rock that used to be live. That guy said the tank was used for less than a year but has been stored in a garage for years ever since with the rock just dryed out in a box.

And I have some that has been sitting in my backyard for a year. Can all of this go into a new tank to cycle together or should I not put some...

Bleaching rock? I went to Lowe’s picked up closest thing I thought to being basic bleach EXCEPT it was splashless. Bleach used to be basic and contain 8% Sodium Hypochlorite. Now it’s been watered down in some cases to 3 percent and has all this “extra” stuff in it. Scents, thickening...

Hello Experienced Reefers, The BRS Channel has done a video on this, and I've seen a few threads touch on it, but there is a knowledge gap for me on how to deal with my Rock in the planning stage of setting up a reef tank. Now, for most walkthroughs and guides one of the first steps after...

Hi guys, I will receive soon 33lbs (15kg) of dry Marco rocks that I'm going to put in a new tank (REEFER 170). The tank is empty, no water, no equipment, nothing. So here is the way I plan to cure and seed the rocks and cycle the tank altogether. Tell me guys how you feel about it, I...
