Great idea thanks sir! So another question do you think it can help to fight nutrients the more rocks the more beneficial bacteria?Of course it will… most people cure rock in the dark to keep the nasties away.. I have about 40 pounds in my sump with no lights.
My thoughts exactly..Great idea thanks sir! So another question do you think it can help to fight nutrients the more rocks the more beneficial bacteria?
