Adding Live rock

I have a 20Gal tank that has been set up and running very well, at least until I got deployed. I have not seen it in 4 months (it is being taken care of by my wife). Anyway back to my question. I have about 25lbs of live rock in it now and would like to add some more. Is there a safe way I can do this without making my tank cycle like crazy? Thanks for the help.

What if you put in some "not so live" rock. Like base aragonite rock? Assuming there no significant dead organic stuff on it, there shouldn't really be a cycle and by the time you get back it should be well on its way to becoming alive! The way I figure it, live rock is expensive, but it gets live tings into your tank...now that those things are there, you can just add more "housing" for them!

 

(Well, that's what I plan to do anyway, if I want more rocks in there!)
