>>Doesn't the skimmer remove foods for the LR?

No. A skimmer removes dissolved organic compounds from the water. High nutrient levels in your tank can lead to nuisance algae problems.

>>how long does it take for 'dead rock' to be colonized nicely by your LR?

My experience is that if you are able to maintain high calcium levels, the base rock (assuming it's made of limestone) will be covered nicely with purple coralline in about 4-6 months.

Here's the wierd reddish berries. Maybe that's what the explorers found on Mars.

If your 10 gallon is on a stand, you might be able to use a CPR or Remora on it. Don't know if it will overskim or not, but if your not a "do it yourself" kinda person, they maybe a way to go.

Sorry, can't do any better. Anyway, now everything seems to be 'dusted' with some white powdery substance. I have a few copepods whippin around on the glass - man, they move like bugs through the air!
