Reefing newb
Ok, I am spending money hehe, I know we all are when it comes to this hobby. But the one thing that I cannot justify spending money on is the live rock! No matter how many times I try to do it , I can't. It just drives me crazy how expensive this stuff is, FOR ROCK! I do not even want know how much they are going to charge me for shipping rock! LOL. Now I have a lot of time and patience, so I can wait for dead rock to become live, so I will justify buying a VERY small box of rock just to seed my tank. But iv been trying to come up with other ways to get cheap or free rock. I was going to make some myself out of cement and real rock and sand. But the question again is what rocks are safe in a tank? Is there anything I should make sure to avoid?
For example - I live in South Florida , about 1 mile from the ocean, and I was thinking to myself. Don't I live on top of one gigantic dead reef???? What If I just went to my backyard and dug up some rock, and let it cure for a month or something.
Let me know what you guys think. This rock thing is driving me nuts LoL :) :)
