New Live Rock. Look Good?

Thinking about using this LR to seed some dry fiji from bulk reef supply. Does this look like good quality good rock? and any reviews on the dry eco rock from brs?

Doesn't look very porous. Is it heavy?

It's got some coralline on it which is good. looks like it weighs a ton but looks can be deceiving. I bought a boatload off liveaquaria and it came out to be about 3.25/lbs after overnight shipping. 310 bucks for 90 lbs.

yeah, the one rock is five pounds and the other is three and a half. One is porous the other is not but I got them for a good deal, you think they are sufficient to get some growth on some dry rock I want to buy from bulk reef supply?
