    I personally like to see varying opinions and experiences because like most things in life your aquarium isn't cut and dry.

    No Pun intended

    As do I my friend, I'm just not sure where you get the impression that anything I wrote is contrary to that.

    Thank you BL :) ( Nice rock indeed LOL )

    Well that's the only piece of 'live' rock I am going to use and with some luck, and good conditions, the rest of the rock and sand will seed from it :)

    Haha.

    Yeah, when I had my tank set up before...I used base rock and with a Kalk drip at around 400 level of calcium, I had purple coralline all over everything in no time!!! ;D

    Thanks Cindy :)

    BL,

    I remember a recent discussion where a person was filling the tank with 'live' rock after scrubbing it? It's not for me to say whether that is right or wrong, but I do know that it is not necessary :)
