Ummm... what's the problem with just adding the new uncured rock to your tank?

If you already have an established tank, and the tank is large enough and already has more live rock than you are adding, I don't see a problem with just letting it cure in your main tank.

You should have plenty of bio-load handling capacity with your existing live rock and sand to handle the minor curing spikes.

I would just add a bit at a time, say less than 25% of your existing live rock at a time, and save yourself the trouble, inconvenience and smell of curing the rock separately in another tub.

Of course this is assuming you already have an established tank with live sand and more live rock already in it than you are adding.

Just my $0.02 worth...
