How much Live Rock to use

[Paulgd]

I am setting up a Live Reef system in a Juwel 350 ltr corner tank, I have been told that I need 60kgs of rock for this size of tank. Has anyone any experience with this tank or is there a rough rule of thumb.
Also can you mix live and dead rock together and will the dead rock become populated over a period of time.

That comes out to a bit more than 90 gallons U.S. and 132 pounds of live rock, which could easily do the job. I don't have experience with that tank model, but that volume would work, no worries about live and "dead" rock together so long as you're willing to wait longer for the rock to become populated, say six months or so depending on the quality of the live rock and the conditions in your tank. Good luck-
