Im not sure on that exact kind of rock but the price is good for online. I dont know how true the "cured" part is. With shipping the rock and taking it out of the water there is going to be die off on it. You are going to have to fully cure it either through your tank cycle or in its on set up when you recieve it which could take a week to a month depending on how long it sat out of the water and how well it was packaged. I have found a good way to save a lot on Live Rock costs is to check online or at fish stores to see if there are any local clubs or fellow hobbyists. Many times you will find live rock at about $2 a pound if someone is trying to get rid of it localy. Hope this helps you out a bit
