biocube 29

Hi everyone, I have been in the hobby since November of 2024 when I inherited an established Biocube 29 that surprisingly came with a sump! The sump was daunting at first, but I have come to enjoy the space and customizable compartments. I have managed to keep all of the previous inhabitants...

I purchased a used Oceanic Biocube hqi 32 tank, and I was very excited because it already had a light in it. Unfortunately, the light that comes with it is used a “double ended metal halide bulb” which I don’t like…. Is there a way to switch to led using the existing fixture??

I’m new to tanks but my brother gave me his 29 gallon bio cube tank. I just have the aquarium and have to buy all new stuff. I still have to do research as I know nothing about tanks or more specifically saltwater tanks but am planning on a reef tank with a couple clownfish. Before I start I...

I guess I started my "build thread" in the Meet & Greet section. Feel free to visit, Newby with a Nano Reef! And I liked @Blopple's build format, so borrowing that... thanks! Growing up, I had several freshwater tanks. Probably wasn't great at it, but had fun with it. Recently, a friend's mom...

A friend recently gave me an Oceanic BioCube 29 HQI, which I've done a deep dive into for my 3 year old's enjoyment. Free tank and then ~$2,000 later... and I'm about 3 months into the endeavor. Open to fish/coral recommendations (towards the end of this). Water Parameters: Temp is about 77°...

Hi Looking for an older style Biocube 29/32G hood. It’s the hood with the T8 bulb type not the newer led. Hood light or fan does not need to be functioning. See below for a picture of an example

I got into this hobby a few years ago with a BioCube 32 and fell in love. My tank had to be broken down after a few months, but my love for the hobby never faded. Fast forward a few years and I'm ready to get back into the hobby. I knew I wanted another AIO and wasn't committed to another...

29 Gallon BioCube Fishtank for sale. Tested no leaks. Used for Saltwater. Works well, had it running for almost 2 years, previous owner did modify it a bit, rim completely removed, some cutting of the rear chambers happened as well. I repaired the back chamber before I used it. Comes with the...

Hello! I’ve decided it’s time to upgrade my lighting for my 29g Biocube. Right now I have a stock 32g LED hood on it, but I have a spare 29g hood with the RapidLED upgrades in it from a few years ago. It’s currently a 2 channel with 1 channel blue (royal blue I think), and 1 channel white (cool...

Hi, I have Biocube 29 hood. This is the older canopy model with the Actinic lights. This will fit the 32 Biocube as well. Everything works fine. You can control the White daylight, Blue Actinic Lights & Blue LED lights separately. Let me know if you have questions Sell Price: $50.00 Pick up...

So I picked up one of these random flow generators from Vivid Creative Aquatics, and the slip fit adapter is just a bit too small for my outlet. Taking the existing plumbing there I'm measuring about 20.9 - 21 mm (13/16 in ) in diameter on the inner slip fit that came installed with the tank...

I got this tank on a spur of the moment decision after weeks of scouring Facebook marketplace during my lunch break at work. As with buying anything used second hand from Facebook marketplace, it was exactly perfect but I am perfectly content with it (for now lol) The first couple days waiting...

Hi everyone! Its getting to that very short time of year where I need to figure out a good heater for my 29 gal BioCube (I say this because I live in Florida, so not much need for one outside of maybe 3 months out of the year so I've been putting off getting one). I'm also in the market for an...

I got a new-to-me BioCube 29 with no lights. I inherited live sand, live rock, the tank, and the stand. After putting it in the spot of the 16 (after moving that tank catty corner) I put the Live Rock in, some new Special Grade aragonite and the water that was in the buckets with the LR. I...

My tank is old, I know. But my kids broke my hood. Its cracked the lights won't work, it's shot. I desperately need a new hood. Apparently Corallife won't fit? Please anyone have an old one to sell.

So I’ve been running my new biocube for about two months. My wife and I took PAINS to make sure the stand was level. Well I get the tank on and my four foot level (which by the way is WAY too long to go on top of the tank without hanging over) is showing that the tank is dipping to one corner by...

Greetings, I’m new to R2R and wanted to share my recently finished Biocube 29 project. I’ve been modifying this tank for the past ten years. This is version 5.0 and it features: -Drilled Fiji Overflow -Laser cut black Starboard bottom -Radion 30 Gen 5 pro -Bashsea Sump and 10g ATO reservoir...

Hey I just wanted to reach out to any fellow reefers and ask if there biocube was stocked with different colored torches and how well they kept their color. I have the stock lighting for a bio cube 29gallon, I was trying to steer away from the greenish color and maybe go for a blue/orange/gold...

Purchased and installed in a Coralife Biocube 32g late October 2019. I went a different direction and just uninstalled these yesterday (7/31). They come with the Bluefish WiFi controller and heat sink. $250 shipped to continental US. Installation video: From yesterday:

Hello, I would like to get peoples input on what I should change my biocube lighting schedule too. I would like to add more blue light into the schedule. I don't really like running so much white light all the time. Only schedules i can find are people running with nothing but high % of white...

Hi All, I have been loving this forum and lurking for a long time. I finally figured it would be time to share my experiences with my upgrade to a new tank. Here is a pic of my Biocube 29 that I have been running since 2008. Wow! 12 years is a great run! The main reason I got the Biocube at...

Full shot under blown out blues of my Biocube 29.

Like any good tank it started with a old fashion cycle but used pure ammonia from the dollar store since I was a high school kid on a budget. Next I decided to test the waters with a cheap damsel before I spent all of my hard earned money on fish, and as you can tell I dealt with my first round...

Hi All! I am new to saltwater tanks and have purchased a used 29g Coralife Biocube. My plan is to start a reef tank with some suitable fish and softy/LPS corals. After a month or so of research on forums like R2R (thanks for the help already!), I decided to start a thread on the setup and...
