Treated in a system with tens of thousands of dollars worth of nice corals and anthias, no losses. Would do again in a heartbeat.

Just keep in mind that if you buy over $100 of the stuff, they're going to request and take records of an ID. Makes it SUCH A PAIN to hide your tracks after the matter.

You could always just skip the TTM and do a normal, QT procedure. Removing variable stressors (like moving a fish every couple days) is important when QT'ing fish.

Just start the tank BB for the first 2 months. Add a thin layer of sand afterwards. This is my standard startup routine for service accounts and installations. Works great.

I wouldn't. If it was me, I'd either toss the rock or throw it through a bleach/acid wash.

CONTEXTUALLY - the assumption I made was that OP wanted to keep rock "live".

He said there's a bucket of rock. That's maybe 10-12 lbs? At $7/lb, that's $70-86. What's a bucket of salt worth? Because you'll be using ~100 gallons of it to do proper water changes on the...

But... Why not just toss it? You'll use up a bucket of salt "cooking" it if done properly. That's $50-100. What's a pail of live/dry rock worth?

You can get cyano/dinos from trace element imbalances. I'm not saying it's endemic to the salt, but it's something that happens.
