yes you can do that, but you need to coral dip that rock so no pests or hitchhikers. you could also add snails that have Coraline on their shells. but again, it depend on how stable your water parameters are.

I dropped the plan of black mollies, and waited some days and added couple of clown fish:)., because it needed acclimation and molding it to saltwater

Where in Norway are you located?

As a crew chief on US Air Force diplomatic courier between 1966 -1970, we flew into Oslo.

Thirty years later, as a senior subsea engineer in deepwater drilling, It was strange to me, when I returned to the land of the midnight sun and worked in shipyards in Pori, Finland.

PS: I worked for Odeco when the Ocean Viking drilled the first exploratory oilwell off the coast of Norway, in the WINTER. It was a rough time.
