Buying Live Rock
What is the best way to prevent unwanted hitch hikers into your tank that come on shipped live rock?
May be a stupid question, but I'd rather ask it and get it done right than try to figure it out on my own and regret it later. Thanks in advance |

get some base rock and you will not have to worry about it if you have a local club you can get a few pieces from one of the members i bet to seed the rock .

Not a dumb question, but don't know that there is a way, to be perfectly honest. many hitch hikers don't even show themselves for months. the only solution that comes to mind is to persuade a fellow reefer to sell you rock that's been in their system for a couple years or more, and use that to seed dry rock.
