I am in the process of switching my GSP to full marine and have a question. Is it ok to use the same rocks as before? Quartz, rainbow rock and slate.
I've got some good live rubble to add to season, but am hoping to use this rock. Please let me know.

what does GSP stand for in this case (as I doubt it's green star polyps ;)). I'm not sure that type of material will make a good substrate for a marine tank, usually more porous substances are recommended.

GSP = Green Spotter Puffer.
I've added aragonite for the bed. I'd rather not use anymore ocean rock if I don't have to.

Do you have a picture of the setup? Not to dissuade your efforts, but the surface are of slate and quartz are probably not what you'd hope for.

The setup is a 20G Long, had blue gravel. Right now it's basically empty except fo the araganite. I don't have a decent picture before I tore it apart, but here are the items I would like to put back in the tank...

If you want to look at it I made a video quite awhile back that shows his tank near the end. It starts with my quarentine tank, and my old 10G.
