Keeping LR alive while outside the tank

What is the bare minimum to keep live rock alive while outside the tank. Would keeping it in SW heated in a rubbermaid and some flow do the trick or do you need lighting?

thanks

How is the union fixed to the threaded adaptor? Since it should be able to be pulled apart I am assuming it is not glued?

Hi,

I have to re seal a bit in my tank and have read that it is important the silicone is aquarium safe. Is this true? And if so where can I get some aquarium safe black silicone?

How do you secure your live rock?

I noticed that many secure their live rock differently or opt to just stack it and not secure it. I am curious how many people choose each option.
