I'm starting a new tank (as of yesterday) and went to the LFS for some live rock - I got some live rock that was 'almost' cured, but figured it could finish curing while the tank is cycling since it's a new setup. ANYHOW, the tank now stinks and the water is cloudy. Is this a normal part of the curing/cycling process or ???? I'm doing water changes like crazy, and everything on the tank (meaning filtration system, powerheads, etc..) are running. Again, I just set this up yesterday, but I'm just wanting to know if it's normal for it to smell and if it's normal for the water to not be as clear as it should be????
This is only my second sw tank (my first one was all ready established - so I didn't really have much to 'set up' just maintain)
Thanks for your help!!!

Oh yeah, almost forgot....nitrate and ammonia levels are spiked - obviously
