Cycle time for frag tank w/ all live rock, sand, water?

Hey guys, just curious what you think will be the cycle time on my new frag tank. It's a 75 gallon that will be filled with 50 lbs live rock, half live sand/half aragonite, and 40% water out of my mixed reef with 60 %fresh salt.

I don't think the live rock has been fully cured, but I could be wrong, getting it tomorrow.

Any guesses? Any advice?

It will have a cycle just like any other tank. How severe it will be will depend on the liverock you get dry or live. Even with live rock there will be enough die off to have some kind of cycle
