GFO messed up my new rocks

[Yanir34]

Hello , i started cureing process of Pukani rocks , I submersed them in RO water in big tab , and connected GFO reactor (rowa phos).
I forgot to put the sponge inside the reactor and all the GFO flew to the RO water and mixed with the rocks (they got orange color.

I immediately wased them 4 times with tap water , and It seems to be clean again.

However, I don't know if the GFO got deep inside the rocks.

Any reason to be worried about that issue?

How can I preform deep cleaning to the rocks to clean any GFO that left over inside of them?

Don’t worry about that. Throw them in saltwater for a couple months with bacteria and a pump and let them go. They will mature that way

Agree. Rinse away what you can and keep going.

Wow, that would be a nightmare in the display. Good thing it was only rock

I've cleaned them few time with strong current of tap water , seems it did the job.
I will rinse them anyway with RO more 2-3 times to be sure
