Is the rock simply too large to go into the aquarium? You can break the live rock into smaller pieces with a hammer and chisel...

Keep working with it

I will often times do my aquascaping in an empty aquarium, maybe just wih sand. I feel like if it will be stable with no water in it, it should do fine when I add the water. It also makes it easier to see what your doing and when you remove it to do a change, it doesn't drip on the floor.
