Hi,
I am in the process of setting up a couple of reef tanks for my daughter and myself... A friend gave me 60# of assorted liverock from a tank that was broken down. I decided to do a Bleach cure following directions on BRS. I did the initial cure in about 10 gallons of well water (in hind sight I should have used RO/DI) mixed with 1 gallon bleach. After one week I set the rock out to sun dry. The problem is that I noticed a sulfur smell from the well water when I was washing my car. I just never even thought about that before I used that water for the cure. I am worried that I have ruined the rock.... Should I be concerned? Still am planning to rinse, soak and dechlorinate in 5 stage RO/DI water...
Thank you so much for any advice.
Kindly
