The Fancy Fused Live Rock is an attractive variety of live rock that helps add interesting texture, color, and structure to enhance any marine aquarium.
The recommended amount of Fancy Fused Live Rock for an aquarium is 1 to 1-3/4 pounds per gallon. This amount will create a beautiful aquascape with many open holes and crevices for marine life to hide. Many reef enthusiasts that wish to provide ample room for circulation behind the reefscape use Fancy Fused Live Rock. This is possible due to the long slender pieces of rock. Many hobbyists use Fancy Branch Rock to add vertical dimension by stacking the pieces upright from the foundation of the rockwork in the aquarium.
Because the rock is uncured, greater biodiversity can be found on the Fancy Fused Live Rock. A diversity of life forms such as plants, worms, sponges, starfish, crustaceans, mollusks, and occasionally even hard or soft corals may be present with this type of rock. Fancy Branch Rock is beneficial for both reef aquariums and fish-only aquariums. Live rock will provide a natural food source for some fish, aid in the breakdown of waste produced by aquarium inhabitants, and create a foundation for live corals or decorations in a fish-only aquarium.
