Base Rock

[brently78]

Does base rock eventually turn into live rock, after being put in an established tank that already has LS and LR in it?

 

[dmjordan]

yes but it takes time.

 

[brently78]

How long? like months or years?

 

[travis89]

like 6-8 months I think.

Okay, thanks very much

it will take some time but it also depends on how much mature live rock is already in tank to seed the base rock. if you have more base rock than live rock it will take a very long time.
