Hi everyone,
After reading a lot on this site I decided to go ahead and ask my first question.
I'm in the process of setting up a reef tank for the first time, it's currently being converted from fresh water to SW and here in Malta(European Island) I didn't manage to find "Marine Pure" rock however the closest thing I got is called "Ogata Crystal Bio" which from the product description seems awfully close to "Marine Pure" even though Crystal Bio is only advertised for Koi ponds.
Did anyone here ever use Crystal Bio and was it successful as a submerged merged media in a low flow zone for anaerobic bacteria (Gas exchange)?
