    What to do with old live rock?

    I dont want to hijack the thread, but I took my tank down about a year ago and am setting it back up soon. The sand is dry in the tank now, it is arag-alive. Can I use it when I set it back up or should I just throw it out and get new stuff? If I can do I need to rinse it or anything?

    MH Lighting Question on Small Tanks?

    Don't do what? Get the metal halide or hang it from the ceiling? I found a 130w pc that is only 7" wide. It is about $90 with shipping. I may just go that route untill I have a permanent residence and can get a bigger tank.

    MH Lighting Question on Small Tanks?

    I have a 29g that is 12" wide. I would like to get metal halides but the unit is 15" wide. Haven't found any narrower ones. It would hang over a inch and a half on each side. So is that alright? Wouldn't it be hard to access the tank having to move it all the time?
