| It will need to be scubbed and cured again. Do not do this in a tank with fish or corals. Suggest curing it again plus adding some live rock from a different source. DO NOT add uncurred rock to a tank with fish or coral. |

| I would scrub it down in vinegar + water and then let it cure again. Using it as base rock is a great idea though! |
