Live Rock... HELP PLEASE

If I didn't have 45 lbs of Live Rock available already I would have went with 100% "dead" rock.


You have no worries of unwanted crabs, mantis shrimp, aptasia, majanos, etc. when you go with base rock.

Now obviously you have a chance of introducing something like aptasia when you put in coral colonies or frags that are carrying it, but it's much easy to check/inspect a frag/colony than inspect 200 lbs of rock.


Go with the dead rock for sure. Just make sure you soak the hell out of it and take your time with the rock. Bulkreefsupply and Marco both are of fantastic quality, you won't be disappointed.
 
I would go with base rock (And did), since you already have some live rock to seed it.

The larger the tank, the bigger the problem if you introduce an unwanted hitchhiker.

Forget the poll... decision by commitee is no way to go about things.
