seeding

[reefr23]

ok! i have a fake coral reef decor from 247fishstore.com
i dont know for sure if its real rock. does the rock have to be real to seed it? bc i think it is fake rock.
and how would i seed it?

As long as it is full of pores for things to hide in. IMO everything can become live. People make there own live rock so that should answer your question.

does it matter how much live rock u have to seed other rocks. bc im trying to save money and i want to by very little LR and alot of base rock. is this possible to seed alot of rock with very little LR?

I would try to shoot for about 50 50 and dont waste your money on live sand. Just get regular sand. Then a little bit of live rock ruble smash it up and drop it in.
