I have re-aquascaped my nano tank and want to add some more live rock to it.

How much of an ammonia spike will this cause?

Thanks.

that all depends on how well cured the live rock is when you purchase it...its always best to try and keep it to small ammounts, about a KG at a time..

When you choose it, take a smell of it...if all you can smell is saltwater, then it is "usually" all cured...the bad smell you could get from like rock is stuff on it dieing...which will lead to an ammonia spike....

Hope that helps

Thanks Niko.
Will add a very small amount as you have said and see how it goes.
