Aquarium Advice Addict
finding a lfs also has fw fish as well as sw i stopped by, and as always checked out the sw tanks for a bit. now i had known about coral and live rock (are they the same thing?) and had seen them, but i never payed attention while i had a goldfish tank.
now that i have some tropical fish, ive really started paying attention to sw tanks, and realized the live rock the lfs was selling was ugly, it looked like some weirdly shaped limestone, nothing that i'd use as a decoration.
it was only $4.99 a lb so maybe thats just how much ugly lr cost
ok but what does lr actually do? filter the tank i guess? i have heard that sw people dont need to do pwcs as often, maybe this contributes?
