Jandree22 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 So I found a deal on SeaCrop where if you get 100lb+ of Fiji base rock, you can get it for $2 a pound. In addition to that, add about 12lb. I would eventually move over from my Nano. That of course equals 112lbs., which would go into a 75gal tank with a 2" sandbed. 1.5lb/gal for those of you math deficient ppl. Is that too much rock for a FOWLR system? I'm planning to keep about 6 Blue/Green Chromis, 2 Occellaris, a yellow tang, a Bangai, one or two other relatively small misc. fish, and POSSIBLY a Hippo tang(but probably just the yellow). I'm open to any comments or suggestions... thanks;) BTW, anyone have experience with SeaCrop or their rock? If so how is it? Link to comment
Chrash236 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 You need more sand, make the bed about 3-4". I think that your ok on the rock, just depends on the type of tank you have, and if you want a lot of swimming room. Just remember to cure the rock for a long time. and keep your water changes up. Also don't forget to skim that rock. Link to comment
MaryHM Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 The rock is already 100% completely cured. It is base rock that has been in our system for over 3 years. The only stuff to die off on it is bacteria, and that shouldn't cause much of a problem at all. Link to comment
