Pro COOL!

con. Yer gonna need a bigger tank!

con, unkown organic content(likely small) high Po.
Put in fresh saltwater and test the po over the course of a few days. (the po will leach into the water generally only slightly despite the internet threads)

check the density of the bone, you want it crumbly ish, for bacteria to penetrate.

I have a piece from New mexico.

I would have to break it up definitely to smaller pieces, it's soft enough to work with
When I get ready to Aqua-scapping

Makes the mind boggle. With the right tools that would be an amazing scape!
