so live rock is just the easiest way to introduce beneficial inverts to a tank? I'm having a little trouble figuring out why it's so essential in saltwater tanks
Live rock?

yes it is the easiest way to do so. It's also because there is more important things than benificial bacteria. The micro organisms are super important, and they can be brought in through live sand or live rock. Thats why i spend money on the sand and buy one nice piece of live rock and make my own rockcarsona246;4362787; said:
Ok, that makes sense, so if you were going to start a saltwater tank and you had plenty of time to cycle it. All you would need to do is buy a few pounds of nice live rock, and cheap rock for the rest and just allow the micro organism to reproduce till all the rock is live? Just making sure I'm understanding this right
Correct.
Its easier to just tell some one they need live rock though, and make a killing of money off it...
thats all fake rock....

Lol, thanks for explaining all this to me. I've been pretty confused about it for a while now. Makes a lot more sense now
yea in that picture i only used 5% live rock then eventually took it out. Now it looks different cause i have sharks, but still some good pieces.
