I was thinking not long ago that it would be a great practice for reefers, if they have space, to keep "spare cycled live rock" in a sump, back of the tank, or in a separate system for NEW HOBBYISTS!
So what's the thinking on this?
My thinking is not only could we have some spare rock for emergency situations of our own but also this could be a great help for people who are setting up new reef aquariums. The idea would be for them to trade you some dry rock or non cycled rock for your established and cycled rock to help them along with their new system.
1. What do you think about the idea to keep extra rock for new hobbyists?
2. Would you be interested in keeping extra rock for this purpose?
3. Do you keep any spare cycled rock now for any reason?
