Adding Live Rock

[medic1175]

Hey everyone, I am thinking about rearranging the aquascape on my 46bow. I'm really not thrilled with it and would like to fill it in more. My question is this I really dont have the space or time to cure LR or dry rock for that matter. I do however live about 10mins from 2 LFS that sell LR, same place I got my original. If it is fully cured, will I see much die off from the 10min ride if I keep the rock wet. Basically will i be ok to add this rock to the tank when i get it home?
Thanks
Matt

P.S. I've included a tank shot of what I have now, any suggestions on what to do are appreciated and encouraged.

You'll be all set.One suggestion try to get rock with as many nooks and crannies as possible it has more surface area for the colonization of beneficial bacteria and makes for easier aquascaping.

Ok so I don't need to be worried about a new cycle. I don't want to harm my live stock

I would expect there to be some potential impact. If possible, you might want to break it up into a few batches. Add a few rocks. Next week add a couple more. Etc.

As you have a fairly established setup now why not save some money and avoid the die off by adding dry/dead rock? You can add it right to the tank after a quick rinse and then it will become live shortly from your other rocks. That's how I would do it.

Dryrock will not cycle as there is nothing to die off on it.
