I know there’s cleaner dry rock out there. Something about this staxx rock tho idk maybe because it goes through a cutting process, maybe I got a bad batch last time idk. Sure is funny waiting for rock to color up inside a bucket hah

Does it get light? To really kick into high gear you could put some underwater light ropes in there and make sure all the rock is getting lit haha and maybe putting in some raw shrimp / clams

Mainly because I get excited over the smallest form of change. My wife must think I’m nutty staring at a bucket of rocks
My future wife also thinks I’m crazy lol live rocks are the most fun , I almost want to buy another round just to see the life or horror I get

You are right about that lol , I’m limited to one tank only. I would setup an observation tank if I could for nems / fish
I've told you, I'll qt anything you want to bring in.

Velvet wipe outs are TERRIBLE. No homie should have to do that.

Harlequin will knock them out fast, just have a plan to move them to another reefer in need once the asterinas are clear

May go this route eventually , the mantis doesn’t mess with the fire blood shrimp / arrow crab it may leave a harlequin alone
