I have 4 pieces of Real Reef dry rock left over from a recent tank build. None of the rocks have been submerged in water so you will need to rinse them thoroughly before using. Total weight is 5.4 lbs. and the photos show the actual rocks available for sale. The biggest piece is a little over...
I recently bought 20 lbs of Real Reef Premium Live Rock for my first 13.5 gallon saltwater tank.
I love the process of building an NSA aquascape that I've seen on youtube...
But I noticed that the majority of people doing this over several weeks aren't using the real reef rock.
I checked out a...

After being in the hobby for at least a 3 years with softies, zoas, clams, to mixed reef. Now I'm on the journey on setting up an SPS dominated nano tank. I know this will be a lot more challenging, especially with time, patience and money so this will be slow. My goal is to learn about these...

Hi everyone,
I'm going to be building my first aquascape for my Reefer 625 and I know I like the purple rock look already, but not sure which rocks to use. Is there a preference of Real Reef Rock vs. CaribSea's Life Rock and why?
Thanks!
While I'm waiting for my tank to arrive, I couldn't help but go and grab some rocks :)
I'm thinking of a 2 island layout with 2 lights directly above each of them, leaving space for fish to swim.
I'm also thinking of 2 wavemakers (probably MP40s) on the back wall (I don't want to see any wires...
I'll use this thread to keep notes for my future self and maybe somebody will find something useful in here as well.
A short intro - I only got into this hobby (aquariums in general that is) around September 2018 and bought my first large (240L) tank December that same year. Spent a few...

So two years ago I set up a new reef tank using real reef rock. I was thrilled I did not have to destroy a reef in the ocean to have a cool looking tank. After about a year I started noticing rubble on the bottom of my tank. Then I came home and found one of my colonies sitting on the bottom of...
Hi all, I've set up my tank using the manufactured Real Reef brand rock - so no live rock. I've cycled using the Red Sea mature kit, I stopped using the coralline grow formulae after the first week, as I understand from my newbie research, this is essentially a feed to boost growth, and...

Please critique my aquascape made using Real Reef rock. The rocks are all held together with 3/4” acrylic rods, thermoplastic beads and cyanoacrylate :D
I decided to totally rescape my tank. (50g)
So I purchased some “Real Reef” live rock from my LFS that’s been in their tank for about a month.
-Drove 5 minutes home without any water but rocks were still wet.
-I have some live rock from an established tank sitting in my sump about 20lbs...
Hey everyone. I wanted to know if there is anyone who has the brand “real reef rock” in their tank that have alk issues? I had to quickly break down my 40 gallon acrylic tank due to a seam failure and move all my sps corals into my Nuvo 20 without having the tank fully setup and cycled. My LFS...

Total 5 Rocks; weighting indidually...
