First Thanks to everyone at this site for the wealth of info I have been able to reference so far. I just received a 125+ Gal Tank, not sure of exact #, With live rock and sand. It had been with out power for sometime, think weeks. no fish in it or anything like that, but a lot of live rock. It came with a Proclear wet/dry filter w/protein skimmer(get to that later) and one pump. I plan on stocking with tropicals and others I will catch my self here in South Fla. I Live in Delray Beach and travel down to the Keys offten.
So I dumped the old H20 for transport, and rinsed everything out befor filling with new H2O and salt mix. Got the SG at 1.026. My question is, what is the condition of the rock since it went without circulation for so long?

Thanks
