You bought 10 boxes of their sand? No wonder they are always sold out haha. Looks good!

Looks good, but if you have 30lbs of live sand in there I hope it’s in water by now.
Also, what are the dimensions of that tank?

No worries, and agree. Just added two boxes myself; the only annoying thing was to remove all filtration for 48 hours. I add this once a year.

AquaForest AF Rock

Nice scape! Really keep an eye on the alk levels of your tank when using this rock new. You may not need to supplement alk for a while.

Thanks for the heads up, this is my second go using this AF Rock , I did plunge it in RODI for a couple days to avoid this issue as in my last tank it shot up to 12.

12 was the number I saw for several months. Good idea using the rodi.
