Will newly mixed water kill lv rck bacteria?

Can I put my dry rock turned live into brand new mixed saltwater or will I need to let the mix sit for 24 hrs before putting rock in? I'm afraid bacteria will be killed by new saltwater. Thanks

Yes, you can - if it's mixed well (totally dissolved) at the proper sg and at temp. It's fine
