oh, OK. thanks mad'am moderator. I appreciate your forthcomming attention to this matter.
As I was saying. Skimmers may take a week or two to break in. Keep up with it and be patient. It will all work out

You can order cured or uncured from Saltycritter.If this is a new setup,I would go ahead and use uncured.I believe its was around $3.50 a pound verses $5-6 for cured.If you don't want to go through a long cycle and don't mind paying the extra few bucks a pound then go with the cured.Don't forget to put in account the shipping which should be around $40.The picture I posted was fully cured Uaniva after about a month/month and a half.I've been in this hobby a long time and have probably tried every type of live rock.That Uaniva was the best I've ever seen.Good luck if you go that route.
