I can't find the thread for acid washing over my phone. But if I remember correctly it's about 1/2 cup muriatic acid to 5g RODI water. Soak overnight. Be VERY CAREFUL and wear protective gloves clothing and goggles. Rinse the rocks in RO/DI water after it's done soaking and let air-dry out in the sun
 
Thanks y'all. I believe I can grab that acid from a pool supply store. Guess I'm just gonna stick to live rock from my LFS I just wanted to add rock from my local area. Bad idea. All of the rocks have been removed. I'll change out the filters tomorrow morning.. I'll also do a water check again to make sure everything is still good.
