    Live Rock

    DO NOT use the stuff from Galveston. Galveston has so many chemicals you will permanantly contaminate your tank. I know someone that tried just adding a fish from galveston bay and had major problems. Stick with the stuff from LFS or online. I get cured live rock in Houston for 4.99 / pound...

    Just a side note so you do not panic, we have to false percs and they sleep at the top of the tank floating on their sides. We were worried at first but they have been doing it for 6 months now with now problems and are happy as clams all day. Good luck with your tank. :eek:
