That's adequate amount of live rock for a filtration.
Usually, people put 1~2 lb of live rock per gallon.
For nice aquascaping, 1.5~2 lb is recommended.
Also, you can put cured live rock after you put your live stock in your
tank. However, just put it little by little. Don't put large amount of live
rock in your tank even you buy "cured live rock". Sometimes, it cause
ammonia and nitrite.

Is 80lb of live rock enough to start a reef tank in a 75gal? Also put
in three heavy bags of live sand.
