    I didn't think the rock had anything to do with it, the hydrometer is one of the cheap plastic pieces of crap, the deep six from coralife. I'm using the coralife salt and start right to take out the chlorine. I'm just starting so I'm using tap water till I can afford a reverse osmosis setup.

    Had some problems last night, ammonia levels from a piece of uncured live rock, now i cant get my gravity levels down. I took out 2 gallons of salt and put in 2 of fresh but that made it worse. What should I do. It was a tad high at 8 am but still within the limits, about 1.023.

    Live Rock and Ammonia

    Need Some Help, I think I got some bogus advice and a chunk of uncured live rock from a guy at the local shop. I believe the piece was brand new, out of the package and only in a tank a short time. It's been in my take for a few days now, should I let it go? It's a 5lbs. piece in a 30 gallon...
