The proper way to do it would be to cure your rock in some sort of container w/ good water flow, but i have been told by LR dealers that you can put uncured live rock/base rock in a newly started tank which will eventually cure inside the tank but this takes a good bit of time and alot of water changes. Also you could add some LR to this figi rock that your talking about which will help in the seeding process of your rock. Lastly I could be incorrect about some of this information so have some others put some input on this subject along w/ doing some more research. Good luck w/ your rock
