    Yet neither of us truly know what type of pore structure is beneficial for anaerobic bacteria. How deep does it have to be, how large, how tight, what o2 content? Just because Holy rock absorbs water does not mean that it has pore structures conducive to anaerobic habitat. We are both only left with what we think is right.

    Yet what I know for a fact, without understanding the intricacies of pore structure.... is that reef rock is very beneficial to keeping reef tanks.:) :)

    And I have never seen bacteria colonies inside of live rock. ;)

    I'll see what I can find when I go to the LFS next time.

    Right now, The earth consists of the 70 % water and 30 % land.
    The main story behind it is that water is the most important factor to live in a life.

    CORRECTION: The surface of the Earth is 70% water and 30% land, although I'm not sure how your post relates to the subject of this 9-month-old thread...
