I was thinking to add LS i just bought "after" my tank been cycled. Tanks have been up and running for 4 months and everything is fine....currently i am using crush corals. Will it be ok if i put in the LS now?

yeah but slowly if you can I would take out all the CC it will eventually be under the CC anyway and back in the same boat.

Why are you using LS? If you have LR in your tank, then you can use "dead" sand and it will get seeded. You can also take a small cup of sand from an established tank and seed your "dead" sand, save some money :)
If you have no fish in there, remove everything, get that CC out!! Put in dead sand, then LR.
