the definitation of live rock is slowly getting misscrewed towards rock that has algae and other "corals" on it instead of the true form which is rock that has been hosted by bugs and backteria and is capable of removing nitrates from the water due to the bacteria hosting in it.
sure the other stuff is pretty but all rock will go like that if you introduce one little chunk of plant/algae covered rock into your system.
