That's how long it took me as well. I even thought about toying with the idea of using muriatic acid in the curing process to try and speed things up. My one structure, I used a lot of vinegar during curing and it finished leaching about a week and a half earlier.

Eric, once I get my 150 home. I might pick your brain for a tech session I want to create something similar in two corners of the tank

Ya. It's a lot bigger than expected. But the blue doesn't seem to open much. Did you find that in your tank too?

I added a very small CBB and 5 purple queen anthias to my system over the weekend.

CBB was eating at the store and started eating right away when introduced to my tank. He spent most of his days hunting in my rock work for tube worms and hopefully some small aiptasias as well.

Fingers crossed he'll leave my lps and clams alone.

I'll let you know how this guys does. I specifically waited for a small one in hopes it will leave my clams and lps alone.
