<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">I hope to be close to adding water to my 175. I have just about everything in place. But I am not sure exactly how to incorporate the rock I have. My plan is to line the bottom of the tank with egg-crate to place the boulders on as well as PVC support. So here are a couple of questions for the experts.</span></span>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">I have a good bit of rock “cooked” and in saltwater brutes. Most of these are larger pieces that will be placed on the bottom. <u>If it is dead, cant I go ahead and place it in the tank and begin the aquascaping process?</u> <u>Would there be any harm in letting this rock go dry?</u></span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">My existing 75 has lots of healthy, very live rock. I eventually want to move this into my new tank to seed. <u>When should I begin incorporating this rock?</u> I have some in my sump waiting for this moment. The rocks in my display will go too but a lot of it has corals attached. I assume it is best to wait until the tank has cycled before I add these. I see myself half aquascaped for a while. The tank is 29” high. Its gonna be a pain to do this if it’s full of water.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">Any advice appreciated.</span></span>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">Thanks!</span></span>
