Hi Gang,
1st of all - HI to the group... I just joined.
I'm an old dude - old school ,trying to break into the 20th century way of LIVE ROCK. I set up a small Pico w/ LR and forgot to raise PH in the RO saltwater I bought . I waited a few days before testing my water to see if it was suitable to my first shrimp/coral. PH not high enough to read on my scale( maybe 7.5?), Did I kill my bacteria on the LR making it Dead Rock? Also , any chance there is a living creature left on my rock?
PS: good news is it is only 3#'s of rock in this little tank.
Thanks in advance, Joey
