Most LFS's (local fish stores) should carry live rock. If not... they should be able to order it for you. There are also several internet stores who will ship it to you. You can get away with uncured rock since you haven't cycled yet. The rock will have enough die off to start yout cycle. You will, of course have to be patient and wait for it to cure in your system though. Cured live rock will be faster, but will cost you more. The rule of thumb is 1-2 lbs of live rock per gallon of water...
