How much rock adding? Where is rock from? How old is tank it's going in? How much rock is currently in it? What's bio load of tank?

just added 2 lbs of crushed from BRS about 4 days ago, wash it with RO/DI and you should be good. I checked mine for dead material and found some dead sponge like material on a small piece i used a new toothbrush to lift off the surface and soaked it in RO/DI. Everything seems fine so far.

i would added no problem as long as your aquarium is established, but try to add it like 5 pounds every week or so and make sure your skimmer is working cause its gonna create a small cycle.
