When adding live rock,
Whats the best way of rinsing it?
Have it in a 10g SW tank at the mo, but is there anything else I should be doing to it??
Thanks indeed

You don't rinse live rock, but if you are wanting to swish it around in a bucket of SW then that would be fine.

cool.
thats what i ve been doing. once youve finished doing this. The saltwater that youve used from teh tank. Is it better to replace with new or just put the bucket youve been using back...
Silly question, but thought id better ask..

Well, putting it back would defeat the purpose of even "rinsing" it. ;) You would either replace it with new water or not rinse the rock at all. :)

Well ive put it back bar about 10 litres anyways ;-)
Ill tell you what tho..
Ive never seen rock like this before. I mean ive seen marine aquariums in pictures and in the LFS, but having one at home is just something else!!!
And Ive not even got fish in it!!!!

You don't even really need to rinse it so putting the water back isn't exactly a big deal.
