I think I already know the answer just wanted others opinion to be sure. I have been reefing for about 15 years and in the past the only rock I have bought was shipped Fiji rock in wet newspaper and live rock from local fish store. So I have cycled live rock with die off.amonia
I am currently building a 1100 gal tank and I will be using about 300 lbs of rock that is in my current established system that has been running for years. But to supplement I bought 200 lbs. of Marco dry rock. I an about 6 weeks from putting salt water in the new tank.
Question is should I be doing something now with the Marco rock or just wait until I start the new tank and put in the Marco rock along with my established rock. I only have a few fish so with 1100 gallon tank and another couple hundred in sump and refugium I don't think I have to worry about any ammonia. I will also be transferring a couple hundred pounds of sand from established tank.
