Wetpets, that rock looks really good! It might even be safe. However, the paint fills and blocks all the pores, which kinda ruins the whole main reason you'd want liverock in the first place, right?
It's slower, but you really can make the good stuff, and since you have a 250 gallon vat handy, you're well on your way. You can't import love rock into hawaii, but can you import liquefied coralline algae and liquified sponge? You can get these by the gallon at GARF. Put that into a vat full of rock, dose with Aragamilk and Purple-up, remove filtration for a few days and provide strong light, and your little rockfarm should be up and running.
