Hey Reefers,
I'm setting up a new 200g DT using AragAlive Fiji Pink sand and CaribSea LifeRock. Because it is a brand new tank, my plan is to place the rock and sand, fill the tank and system with RODI water, get the system running, and then slowly add salt to bring the water to the proper salinity. Is exposure to RODI water harmful to the bacteria that CaribSea inoculated into the sand and rock?
Thanks!
