How many pounds of live rock do you have in your tank? It looks like you need some more live rock. How long has this tank set up? Lighting?
cheers
 
i have about 25 lbs . if i buy more LR can i just add it in my tank?? what is the process of this because i already have my fish in there?? but if i need more lemme know . my lights are pc.it came with 2 x 36w 50/50 pc one went out . it went out on my first week. i tried to switch the pc its not the pc it must be the ballast or wiring. does this mean i can put a 65w in one socket?? if not where can i get a retro fit kit for my hood .

If my live rock isn't dried out ( i bought it and it was in my tank within not too long) then i just put it in. don't squish fish, thats my only rule as far as adding rock.

When you buy live rock, make sure that it is light and not heavy. Usualluy light live rock is more porous and that's what you want. You can add more live rock but you have to make sure that it is cured live rock and not uncured. Also make sure that the live rock remains wet while you take it from the LFS to your home.

If you add cured LR you should be okay. If the LR is uncured, it could potentially cause another cycle because of the die off. How long has the tank been up and running?
