It usually takes several weeks to cure live rock.

Re: how long

as i understand it, if it is already "cured" that is it. You can just add it to your tank. If it is dry rock, then you need to cure it in your bathtub, stank up your house and curse the hobby for a while. I like to just buy rock that is already cured. It is worth the extra money.
