can i add live rock to my fresh water tank that was already in a saltwater tank or will that cause problems? i also have live sand as well
Homer8 said:If you add it all the bacteria that was on it will die and then freshwater bacteria will make it live rock again.
harryggumb said:So does that mean that I can add both? Even if is just for decoration?
blert said:If you don't clean it well and allow it to dry completely you will have a die off and huge toxin spike. You also need to get all the salt out of it. It will also raise your pH and keep it quite high.
blert said:Depends on the media. Bio-balls you can just clean off. Floss, sponges, pads, ceramics, chemical media and such I would recommend just replacing. Make sure to clean everything very well with vinegar to get all the salt out.
