Good luck with that. I also added 10lbs of cured LR to my tank not to long ago and nothing happened, but it wasnt exactly the same as your situation.

Just another update for anyone reading this...

Tank has REALLY cleaned up. Water is crystal clear, everybody seems much happier. Brown slimy stuff is going away and being eaten by the clean up crew.

Honestly, the tank is looking better than it ever has. Clean up crew and RO/DI water work wonders!
