Hi all,
Recently set up a new tank and I have sand and dry rock from a 18 month old nano setup which can go in the sump. Main display is marco dry rock.
I’ve smashed up the rock to throw in the sump as the whole rocks were too big for the chamber. Question is, do you think this will have enough biodiversity to get the tank up and running fairly quickly or would adding some genuine live rock be a big benefit or just a waste of money? I’m a bit worried about adding random critters with live rock, hence why I’m a bit sceptical and hoping it will be enough without. On the other hand, I aren’t the most patient guy and want to get basic SPS in the tank as soon as possible (6 months I’m thinking). What do people think?
