There's always a risk of pests.. aiptasia... Unless you can trust the source of the rocks 100%, I would always cure.
There are times where I'll do a quick freshwater dip. Most of the inverts in the rocks will evacuate, I'll grab the beneficial ones.. toss any pests before going into the bleach.
Got a couple of things here today. Trying to clear out stuff I just don't use anymore. Hoping they'll be of use for someone else. Some new, some used, read the descriptions.. pick up in East Hanover, NJ. Cash. With prices like this, really not looking to deliver.. probably cost more in gas haha...
I siliconed it shut so it would work with internal return. If you prefer external, just remove the cover.
Personal preference, I want to maximize my sump size in the stand for water quantity. External return pump means I'll have to make space in the stand for the pump to sit, aka smaller sump..
Just the bulkhead, buyer will have to get an overflow box. Relatively inexpensive for this sized tank, some silicone, and done. Where you install it will dictate the height of the water level in the tank. If you're interested, and need help, more than willing to give a hand.
