It's been so long I don't remember. I think I may have turned off notifications on that one. Why?

Well, I'd start with a 15%. Then You can do 10% every other day. If they have been surviving for the last 2 weeks then it's not lethal, but they prolly don't like it. My guess is that by week 4 everything should be stable. Provided you don't add anymore LR from that source, lol. You should go get a water sample from there tank and test it. Ummm, that was only a joke.

No more LR from that source.!!! Maybe i should go test their water! I will do 15% water changes every other day for 4 weeks! Hopefully That will stablize things. My tank looks so dull...ONLY 1 fishy in there!

No, no, I meant BY week 4 it should be OK. That only leaves you with 2 weeks. It may not even take THAT long so continue to test the water. 4 weeks was only my guess.

YES!!!!!!!!!!
I say it like that because I didn't know when I started my tank, and my ammonia read 6 about 4 hours after adding the LR!! It killed all that I had in my tank. That was my fault for not researching better though.

Any of that...It doesn't matter, you need to recure any rock that's been shipped!! Some people even recure their rock if the drive to the LFS is to far away and the rock was not completely submerged the whole time.
