jackaninny Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 I'm picking up some mostly cured rock and I'll probably need to keep it 3-4 weeks before I have the tank ready. I was planing on using a rubbermaid, powerhead and heater to keep it happy during that time. Is this an OK idea and how long can I keep it like that? I know I'll need to change the water on a regular basis but how often might that be for about 50 lbs in a 20 gallon rubbermaid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 As long as you keep the parameters in check then this would potentially work indefinately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeFit Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 I like to change the water from my established tanks during waterchanges out to the curing rock to feed it with some nutrients and bacteria seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
