i have about 60 lbs of live rock from my brothers salt water tank that he decided to take down. i was wondering if i could put it in my african cichlid tank?

From what I've read, let it sit in the sun for about a week, and then pressure wash it to get rid of anything that's living on it. It might be a better idea to sell the live rock and buy something else. Live rock tends to be expensive.

very true but cam you sell it even if it hasnt been in water for like 8 days already?

I don't know for sure, but I would guess no.
