So, tonight I was at a party, and my buddy was asking me about my reeftanks. I told him I was setting up a new one and he was like "no way, man I wish I would have known, I would have given you all my TBS live rock."
At this point I was like...what did you do with it? He said, "well I kinda threw it away in the woods behind my apartment complex."
Needless to say I was stunned that somewhere out there in the woods was TBS live rock for the taking....so naturally I asked for directions!
He gave them to me and I proceeded to away from the party immediatly and headed to my place to pick up a flashlight, a sheet to carry all the rock in (plastic bag would have just broke) and went over to his old place.
I spent a good amount of time looking around and finally there it was a nice heap of dead live rock! So I piled it into the sheet and made my way to my car...mind you this all took about 15 min to find and load up.
Well I opened the trunk of my car and all I hear is..."son, you mind telling me what is in that sack!" I turned around to see a cop getting out of his car, and asking me to put my hands on the hood. So I did and it turned out that some girl was watching me out her window and thought I was trying to break in there place cause it looked like I was hiding in the woods, well after they saw I was picking up rocks they pretty much though I was retarded, and let me go haha...God I love being a reefer! They will never know how happy I was =)
Anyways there is alot more out there so i am going back tomorrow in the daylight to get some more!
Here are some pics of what I picked up, I think its about 45 - 50lbs, and the biggest piece is about 12" x 7"
I pressure washed them and have them soaking in a bucket now, how should I go about boiling these? Do I use vinager, or anything to dilute in the water? I have never cleaned dirty rock before.
I hope those pics work, sorry for the shakey hands, I think I was still rattled from the cops haha.
