So I have had my tank up and running since mid-December. I am currently in week three of a 76 fallow. My CUC consists of a bunch of different small hermits, there fighting conch, and a mix of snails. Here are pics of my rock. It was originally white (I have a bunch of live rock also). What is the next stage for this rock - what color can I expect next and how long will it take? Thanks in advance!

December eh? If it hasn’t gone brown then green yet it will be coming soon. After the green goes away coraline should start to form if you’ve introduced some with frags.
