Questions
Fishrmypets are your pictures in review from 1 box purchased or multiple?
On average how many pieces come in the box
I assume it is dry rock. Did you cure it in or out of the saltwater tank?
- I was in no hurry setting up my new tank so I cured it in my saltwater tank, it was a new tank so after a thoroughly rinsing everything with RODI water I did my aqua scaping and filled my tank with fresh saltwater and cycled my tank, but as I said I was in no hurry so it was quite a few months before I put any live stock into the tank.
Helpful?
What size average are the rocks?
- The base rock is really nice and most pieces measure approximately 7" x 4" x 4". There was very little rubble in the box. I liked it so much that I purchased it again!

Rust colored algae in both of my 10 gallon tanks after switching from gravel to sand substrate. What can I do?
I recently got some hermit crabs. The nearest pet store to me is an hour away so I made a visit to purchase supplies. But I didn't get as much substrate as I needed, unfortunately. I was planning to go and get more when I had the chance. But I believe my largest crab is molting, it's trying to dig underground but there's not yet enough substrate for him to really bury himself yet. I know you should not bother a molting crab, but if I buy more substrate should I put it in there with him or wait

I have a 5 gallon tank with a submerged Built-in filtration system how many cubes do I use and how do I put them in my filter? Please provide the instructions thank you for your time.
first of all, thanks for your advice with my african dwarf frogs! after the aquarium salt bath they are doing great and even look more vibrant now! i was wanting to know what substrate would be best in the tank. would sand be okay or would they eat that like the gravel? i have a heavily planted aquarium and need something to keep the plants in place but i dont want my frogs to eat it and have something happen to them. i find conflicting information when i research it online. thanks!
I got my vanilla lobster home yesterday and the first thing I noticed was that he was raising his tail sharply and almost stumbling around. I woke this morning and he was on his side. It's a 55 gallon tank and has only been established about two days but we used the instant start bacteria treatment and the rest of the tetras, bichir, parrot fish are doing ok. Any thoughts?
