lfs=local fish store or local pet store.
If the rock was 100% cured what you saw may have been all the spike you will get for now. The fluidized bed filter is great but didn't add bacteria it will grow as tank matures. What are your nitrates doing? remember the cycle goes ammonia nitrites then nitrates
