Its ok, just leave the "dead rock" inside the tank for cycling. Run your skimmer & do not add any fishes or corals for the next 3-5 weeks at least.

Quoted...."keep an eye out for any white filmy or black areas on the rock and remove them. These are dead or dying organisms and can quickly pollute your water if not removed. "

i guess if wanna leave in tank, better put it at somewhere with high current.

since u're new...r u familiar with the term cycling your tank?

pls DO NOT add any fish or corals inside until your tank is properly and fully cycled

if your tank setup has a good water circulation (flow), those things will gone in time.
