Base rock wouldn't be a problem to add, it'll just take time to become live. Be prepared for it to do some funky things for the first couple of months. I added some and it turned flourescent green for a while. I added additional live rock to my 55 last year. We had started with 20lbs, added 10 lbs live and 20 lbs base around the 5 month mark. All was fine.

Yeah, but the rock I bought all fits together the way I originally had it, which is why I bought it LOL. So now I'm looking for a few smallish shelves to add to the mix to change things up and add some space for sps to encrust
