I just bought some that has never been wet can i just put this in the sump or do I need to do something else to it before adding it to the tank?

I agree. It's clean and sterile, just like LBTR that's been blasted clean.

Soak it in RO water for a week. I know it isn't recommended but like most artificial rock, it has silicates in it and it can cause a diatom bloom.

The piece I have now didn't cause any issues but the first piece I got did.
