Moving live rock

[Valkyrie]

Is there any reason I should not take live rock that has been in an aquarium for about 4-6 weeks that has no fish in it and move it to an aquarium that has fish in it? I want to break down the aquarium with the rock in it and use it for something else and I want live rock in the other that has none.

Thanks.

No i don't believe so. I will say if its not entirely cured it mat spike your alk, and that's not good for coral.

A fwiw, if you take a power head tank water and a piece of seasoned live rock in a bucket you can put fish in it.

Agreed. Should be fine.

Thanks. I appreciate the input.

I have frags in the tank with a few fish, so I'll test the water the rocks are coming out of and make sure they're cured.
