Well I do know that places like red lobster and walmart keep them at room temperature.

How cold would you think it would have to be or could it survive at 78 degrees

I could see the fact that it prevents water from sitting still in the live rocks which could effect o2 levels. As for decreasing the pumps life I could, say it might affect it by a little. If it recked the pump people would not use wave makers that turn pumps on and off.

Crap looks like I got to do some killing :) I for sure have a some Aiptasia's that I will need to get rid of. Ok that other thing I saw in my tank that I did not see on the list was I have what looks to be a tube worm, but when I fish get near it I pops back into the rock. Is that a bad tube worm?

OK after talking to some people they said that there are a few bad thing that can come with your live rock. What are all the pest that I need to look out for and how do I get rid of them? If you have picture that would help.
