    Unless you want a tank full of that stuff you best toss it out and scrub the rock in some hot hot water.. Or let it air dry or bleach it.. The Anthilia will take over and somther anything else..

    I set up a 10G nano. I put a small piece of Anthilia in it. I'd say with in 2 months I had more Anthilia than water.

    Mind you is can be trimmed back and sold as frags. But it does grow like a weed
