rock curing outdoors

[Europhyllia]

I may be able to drain my current tank and slide it to a different spot on the tile floor and set it back up.
Then I can put the new tank in the permanent location and just cure the rocks right in the tank.
I was looking into 'cooking' the rock which seems to just mean curing without light for 6 weeks or so. Did I understand that right?
Could I achieve that in the regular tank with a sheet over it?
Or will curing them in the tank mean I'll miss out on the cooking part?

Since you've dried and scrubbed your rocks clan, I would just put them in the tank and go from there. Keeping them in dark would only serve to prevent things from growing. Don't think that's necessary anymore. Skim heavy for awhile like you would for any tank cycle and enjoy watching them come alive again.

Good point John! Thanks
