An alternative, if you really can't find suitably sized rocks is to buy larger odd shaped rocks and break them up using a hammer or something.

Don't worry, you can always buy more rocks to add on to the tank. Only problem i forsee happening would be cycling could be slightly delayed(At most by few days to a week depending on the quantity you add) when this new batch of rocks causes a new ammonia spike.

Don't worry too much about the worms, they would die-off during the cycling period. Even if they don't die, IMO its ok to leave them as it is as their useful scavengers.

Worms might be fine but you might want to look out for aiptasia... even live rock should be quarantined...

Dip for about 1.5 hours will be good enough?
