Default Help Please base rock
I live in Australia and im trying to get my hads on some base rocks but its soo hard. Does anyone know where to get some locally in NSW or anyone have an alternative to buying base rocks such as concrete but i know that you have to cure them and im not sure how long, because i dont want to buy live rock and use it as my base as they will most certianlly die. Please help

do a search for Aragonite or Tufa rock...they are good selections for base rock, but follow instructions in this forum on how to clean/wash them before you put them in the tank...

I used Lace rock (dead). It worked fine.
