My tank has had LS and salt in for two days, Do I still need to cure it before I put it in the tank?? :rolleyes:

If you have fish or inverts in the tank I would not recommend it. There are a couple pieces of info you did not mention... where did the LR come from? Online or LFS? If LFS then you probably would be able to get away with it if you know the reputation of that store to be good. Do you have a protein skimmer? If not, then I highly recommend it. Have you been curing the LR? If so, how long?

I bought the live fiji rock online from marinedepot.com
I just set up my tank two days, So far I just have the LS, salt water, heater (water is 80d), and filter. But I don't have any fish yet.

Add the live rock. It will start your cycle.
