booboo Posted August 23, 2004 Author Share Posted August 23, 2004 ok thanks a bunch i thought i migh over load it or something Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 well, you can overload it if there is no room for your future inhabitants. also, lr varies on density. you can get more of the dense stuff, and less of the light stuff. if pieces are too big, carefully break them apart to achieve the desired sizes and structures.

reverai Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I have 21 pounds of live rock in my Nano Cube but the rock is dense so there is much room in my tank as it hold 9 gallons of water after the rock and sand were put in.... Steve Link to comment
matt the fiddler Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 you can't have too much- as long as you have swimming room for what you need. lots o live rock= buffer for boo boos. i ususally try to keep 2-2.5 # per gallon in my tanks Link to comment
