Reef Saver Rock just got delivered... Next step?

[MurseBS]

So I just got this rock in the mail along with my BRS GFO and Carbon reactor. What do I do next with the rock. I am ordering another 75 lbs also. Its dry not wet

Are you starting a new tank with it or adding it to an existing set-up?

 

[MurseBS]

Its in a new tank. The middle rock is DIY that Im still curing, but im ordering about 60 more lbs

 

[subielover]

I would add it to the tank in that case. Maybe add some Brightwell MicroBacter7 to help give a little boost to the bacterial populations.

I agree, you should be just fine adding it to the tank now.

So when I get another 100 lbs yall are saying that I can go ahead and add the water?
Also is there any steps after that such as turning the lights on for only 6 hours a day the 7 and so on?
Also when do I add the raw shrimp?
