Wild live rock inherently is covered and impregnated with undesirable pests and decaying organic matter. In most cases wild live rock is not alive, as it died crossing the Pacific by boat.
Real Reef offers the aquarist a clean biologically active rock, which mitigates all the issues of wild live rock, including the process of waiting for the death to subside, AKA curing.

The product is pigmented with non-toxic colors to duplicate the most beautiful encrusting coralline algae mother-nature has produced.
Real Reef's various shades of purple, pink and red allow for the aquarist and retailer to have the coralline encrusted reef or fish aquarium they always dreamed overnight.
