Or buy LR from fellow reefers decom tank... that will help also. If you tank is not too large... Live Sand / Aragonite will also help mature the tank faster. All the best to you bro... just don't throw in a Damsel hor :o

when i used my old rocks for the new tank took me less than a week as i had to throw in my 3 old fishes n zoos urgently ... only had a small spike in ammonia but very quickly down n then all parameters still ok... geuss if yrs if not urgent , the trick is to stk up slowly closely monitoring the parameters ...
