I’m restarting my tank and bleached my live rock. Did 10:1 bleach for a week. Quick dip in RO water. Let dry for a two weeks now it’s cycling in salt water in a brute trash can.
I don’t smell bleach anymore but what concerns me is if I lift my power head to the surface of the water to aerate it then there are what looks like suds from soap! I’ve rinsed the rocks twice and it still forms suds!
If I lower the power head or even turn it off then after a few minutes the foam dissipates. But I’m sure if I aerate it like a skimmer it would just foam like crazy
I only used chlorox and Walmart brand bleach. Did I **** up my rock permanently? Should I try to use the rock still and run a skimmer a while before adding sand?
