If you take live rock out of water and it dries out... is it still considered live rock? How long will things thrive on it?
I ask because we decided to cut back on the amount of live rock a few months ago during a horrible outbreak of hair algae. We also pulled a rock populated with bristle worms. We scrubbed everything and stored it in styrofoam containers.
I am starting a nano tank and would like to put in some live rock but I don't know if this rock is still considered live rock or if there is a possibility of the hair algae coming back... I don't know how long spores will survive.
