In regards to acid soaking:
I opted not to with this rock, based on these factors:
1) This rock is going into a fresh new system that can cycle however long it needs to, and I don't want to dissolve 20% of it after I've already had it aquascaped just how I want it.
2) The rock was really clean to start with. The only sign of former life on it was a ton of tube worm/featherduster/vermited snail skeletons, and the skeletal remains of a few encrusting stony corals. There was practically nothing there to dissolve, other than the rock itself.
