Hello all, I'm new to the hobby and to this site, though I've been gathering some tips already. I am about to setup a 57 gal tank w/ a sump being made by the 'fish lady's' husband, a really nice guy btw. Also have a T5 lighting system on the way.
Anyway, I was wanting to get some rocks and sand prepared, but have been warned about the hitchikers such as mantis 'hammer' shrimp, etc. Do you know which curing technique is best to get rid of these types, but keep some of the good stuff on the rocks and sand? Is it really better to just buy the stuff already cured?
Thanks, I'm sure I'll have more to come.
