Hi guys i am new to this saltwater hobby. Let me start of by saying this that i have been reading a lot on reef central and its a great forum Okay so today i set up this new 29 gallon saltwater tank. My neibour had his saltwater running for around 5 years so he gave me about 35 pounds of live rock because he needed some space for his tangs. I have a few questions.
1.Since the live rock is from an established aquarium how long do you think it would take me to cycle my tank and what would be the process? (Live rock is fully cured)
2. Rock has some coral like stuff on it i'm not sure what they are but there are a bunch of them. I'm attaching a pic so you guys can see. After you guys see the pics can you please tell me if they would be okay in my tank since it's brand new setup and not yet cycled and one more thing the light is normal t8 15 watts since i am planning on doing FOWLR.
Here are the pics. Do you guys think its good live rock and what kind is it.
I would appreciate the anwers
