adding rock to a established system?

[aznnutty]

if i add about 50 lbs of rock or a 100 lbs of rock to an already established system, will it cause a cycle? the rock is bleached and dried

I would also like to know this! and also if you add live rock to an already established tank will it re-cycle?

+1. The only time it would was if it was live rock.

true guys but in the event that there is any dead matter still lingering in the inner parts of the rock could be a smalll mini cycle but still a slim chance and nothing i would worrie about

Just add it over three weeks or something. 1/3 at a time. pretty much guaranteed to have no probs then.
