LFS'S LIVEROCK

[WALLYB]

Please bear with me (really new to this), but I was just at a local LFS(first time there) and saw a tank full of liverock. The majority of it was covered in this white mildewy(sic) kind of stuff. Is this a good or bad or unimportant. There are very few if any LFS in my area(none that carry liverock). Anyone who could fill me in!!

I dont know exactly what that is but I would say it is not good.

My live rock had that problem when curing. I'm not an expert but i'm sure it's bacteria similar to mold or something that helps decomposition.

You should have asked them if you didn't know what it was
