10% of your total water volume should do the trick assuming your using the LR as your primary filter.

So ~50KG for 500litres.

i personally would use more than 50kg, i had 40kg in a 4x2x2. i would say if your looking to save some cash go for dead rock and then put live rock over the top, it will take time to seed the dead rock but as it is said in the marine world "nothing good happens fast"
