    Default Synthetic Live Rock available at both locations!

    Hey everyone!
    We have received a shipment of artificial live rock from one of our suppliers over seas and I have to say, it is the most realistic I have seen.
    Although it can be used in a reef aquarium, I think this product has huge potential in fish only set ups. It will enable the hobbyist to have the look of live rock with the freedom to be able to medicate if necessary. We have showcased this rock in one of our front displays, see if you can see the difference!
    They are available in 12 different styles and shapes!

    If it's designed as live rock, could it also be used in freshwater to develop anaerobic zones for bacteria to remove Nitrates? I know Seachem's Denitrate does exactly that, aerobic zones on the outside, anaerobic zones in the middle.

    Just curious if it would apply to artificial live rock still.

    This is more replica rock. It is hollow on the inside, it would grow beneficial bacteria on the surfaces but the same could be said for any rock. I had a look in Richmond's display yesterday and you cannot tell by looks that it is not real. Amazing product.
