I don't see any reason why seeding the tank like that wouldn't work. I put little pieces of rock with new colors of coralline algae some times. Doesn't take long for the seeding to take place with all flow going. (maybe a couple weeks) now i have multi color rock. I think it looks good but just JMO. Good luck with your order and curing!!

If you do buy a large amount of eco rocks etc. I would cycle them like you would live rock. I had 150 pounds and for 6 weeks went through the typical cycle stages. I just had them in a bucket with a powerhead,airstone and heater and we got ammonia,nitrite and nitrate.
Really it might be dry but everything that was alive in the nooks and crannies dies in there and then decomposes when added to water. Just my observations anyways
