I'm trying to setup my first aquarium and decided to jump in head first with a marine system. I've purchased a large aquarium (110 gal.) and also a biowheel and a Fluval filter, which I've been told with offer plenty of filtration for the system....but I also wanted to incorporate some live rock for a little more natural bio filtration. I was thinking of using 25% live rock and the other 75% as dead rock or reef bones in my aquascaping because I've been told that all rock will eventually become live rock. What I'm wondering is if I combine dead rock or reef bones with fully cured and seeded live rock would I need to do this in a seperate tank or would I be able to use fully cured live rock in my system with dead rock and expect to end up with a fully funtional live rock system? Would live sand help in the process?
Thanks in advance for any info and suggestions.
