hey guys,
Im curing my rock now...every 4 or 5 days and take each piece of LR and put it right next to my powerhead (1100gph) and shake it around....this gets off all the nasty stuff of the LR but now im wondering if this powerblasting thing gets off the good stuff also...do you think its good that im dong this or should I stop?
cheers!

It's probable that this is taking off some of the "good stuff" too but you can see it taking off bad stuff it's worth it. Lot's of people now are doing way way harsher things to their LR beforing putting it in a tank. "Cooking" LR is getting popular (not actually cooking so do a search for details.
