1.5-2 months to get the pH down but at 100+ pounds of rock for $12 versus $6 a pound locally I think I can wait it out.



One thing most people overlook also when setting up a tank is that once your tank is mature you likely won't see the rock at all.

Pay top dollar for something you will cover in coral doesn't make alot of sense.
