uswd rocks?

[cmb88]

so my sister was using figi rock in her fresh water tank. I presume it had been cured at some point, then used in half water half dry tank with fish, frogs, and crabs. I scrubbed it clean (it looks clean) and soaked it in a bucket of ro water and salt (1.026 spe grav) for 1 week with a pimp going. Stimulating a dark cycle kind of..People at pet store say it is fine to add into my 8 month old 14 gallon cube. I am afraid it will cause a spike or cycle change etc. I tend not to trust these people. What are your thoughts? Can I add it to my aquascaping? Thanks
Claire

ha ha

yeah nice, but remember I was told by 3 fish store people I did not even need to do that, but thanks for the sarcasm. I am just trying to protect my nice tank. I have not seen a change in nitrites etc, just wondering if I am doing this right.

I think you would be ok, by chance did you check the water parameters of the water that the rock was soaking in... I would just keep an eye on the levels, most of the spikes are from die off of the rock and lack of bacteria... It soaked a week so you shouldnt see any...

why is this in this section?

Thanks dream. It looks fine, but still a little worried.

In this section because this is the section I usually post and talk to my buddies etc. So I thought it should go here as well since I have not been on in awhile. I happen to have really nice expensive zoanthids in my tank and have had good feedback before. You unfortunately are reminding me as to why I have not been here in a bit. Didn't your mother teach you if you do not have anything nice to say then do not say anything at all? Settle down.
