you may want to revise some of your advice ,uncured rock is what comes direct from the ocean. with all its bio living thing s in there. Cured rock is what you get at the LFs or the places like J&L Ocean aquatic's places like that .. dead rock is jsut that. its dead there isnt any thing in there that has life. that is why its called LIVE rock is the bacteria that grows in and on the rock the eats away at the crap that builds on the rocks ..
You can go as deep or shallow with your sand as you like,personally I like the deep bed method 4'' of sand,you'll get the best biological production this way.
Actually anaerobic bacteria starts at 1" so having a 4" sand Bed IME is a waste. 1-2 " should work alot better then 4-6'" that is just for my experince
