if the water is already mixed together which is should be since uve added your sand already you can either go ahead and get some rock now or if you want you can wait till the sand settles out more its really up to you. also do you have any pumps/powerheads if not when u get your rock pick out one you like to start with just to have water circulation in the tank while it cycles
 
TY i do have a powerhead. Yay i can have live rock by tomorrow.
 
from what i've heard...if the rock smells foul then wait. if it smells like saltwater you are good to go
