The rocks I got came from a sump that was shut down and looked rly dirty. Even with good live rock I wanna make sure everything is 100% fresh because I believe my rocks in my tank are leaching phosphate thus the large amt of hair algae I'm having. I wanna make sure this won't happen again.

I have about 70lbs of rock I wanna clean. Can I just put it in a garbage bin and pour like a gallon of bleach into it with water then leave 1-2 hrs and flush clean with hose then do it again but with muriatic acid for 1-2 hrs or am I missing something
