Man-made Live Rock

[Daddy-o]

Anyone have any thoughts on this stuff? I like the environmental aspect of it, but want to make sure it is good to use.

I used it in one of mine, and it colored up nicely and with seeding I got lots of critters as well. I like how it can be molded to form lots of caves, etc.

Just be sure that it has been properly rinsed, so you're not dealing with leaching issues.

It is great rock, but you still need some good live rock to introduce the good stuff so it can spread to the made rock.

It also took him about 3-4 months total before it had cured properly and he had it in the ocean for a while even. I had the same problem with mine. It is much easier and can be just as cheap to get it off of craigslist or a local forum.
