Base rock has hit the tank

Well I received my first batch of rock from Marco a few days ago, I must say while this is the first time I have ever bought this type of product I was very impressed by the quality and must say keep up the good work, and I would recommend to anyone. I scrubbed the rock down when I received it and then let it soak for a few days in a tub. Well tonight I couldn't resist any longer and decided to add it to my tank. I still have no idea what the finished product will look like until I get my LR (hopefully early next week) but this is what I have ended up with so far






The filter on the back of the tank was added to speed up the removal of some sediment left over from adding the sand.


Also in the few hours since adding the rock my skimmer has went into overdrive and there is also white foam coming from my drain into my sump. Is this normal, did I not wait long enough to put the rock in. I figured any left over biological matter on the rock would simply get my cycle started a little earlier than waiting on my LR, any thoughts would be appreciated.
