    Yes. More then likely you already have liverock. Coraline is not what makes it liverock. The bacteria is what makes it liverock.

    Brian is right, but I would like to expand on the live rock inhabitants...microcrustaceans, polychaete worms(ie. serpulid, spirorbid, and terebellid), gastropods, sponges, small coral and bivalves! You would be surprised as to what is living within and on the live rock as well as on or within your sand...this will spread to rock that was addded with no living organisms associated with it.
