Recently bought a tank that was already setup with live rock and had an engineer goby in it.
Wanting to start up a reef tank. All levels appear to be good but was wondering about any new advice on what I should do to get the perfect conditions for a reef tank.
Thoughts:
Going lidless and...
Hey everyone,
My biocube 16 (sps dominated) have been running for a year or more now, it has had a lot of algae issues sinces it started. It crashed not long ago but it is recovering now, im thinking of making an extra sump for it, it is a 20 gallon. Should i use the space for a skimmer or...
So, this biocube is an sps tank, it has been running for about a year or more, a few months ago i had to go out of town and other people were caring for my tanks, sadly nobody knew how to dose and stuff so my sps tank crashed, although one large colony actually survived the crash. The tank is...
Hey guys, I’m setting up a BioCube 32. I have a bunch of types of media including purigen, matrix, bio balls, floss, and crushed rubble. My question is, how essential is it that all the water flows through the media? I have a bag of matrix that’s just kind of floating in a chamber in my cube, it...
Looking for options that I can keep my hood and my hood be functional with lights that preferably fit under the shield where the shock lights are.
What fits in the space where stock lights are besides stevesleds and nanobox
considered doing an ai on top but would have to stay in place when...
Was wondering what everyone has had success growing with stock biocube leds?
Things you’ve tried and lights weren’t enough for?
Considering switching lights eventually but I have to leave my hood on and don’t care too much for the look of a light on top of the hood.
Trying to figure out which setting is which on my 32g led biocube. I believe I need to cut down on my white lights. So which setting controls which lights and what is your lighting schedules?
Hello all this will be my first post so hope to peak some interest and as always get some feedback/input/ideas from all of you.
Been out of the hobby for several years but something peaked my interest and I got sucked back into the vortex. I ended up picking up a Biocube 14 and After cycling...
Just got a new-to-is Biocube 32G yesterday! Woohoo! We previously only had a 13.5G so this is really going to be a nice sized upgrade for us (yes I know it is still considered nano/small lol).
The tank had been up and running and I believe used for housing anemones. It came with sand, water...
I have a 32 biocube and just upgraded to Steve’s leds with the bluefish controller. I currently am doing the recommended acclimation period. I am wondering if anyone has expieriece with the Biocube/StevesLEDs combo or something similar and what schedule/intensities have worked for them. Thanks...
Thought I'd post an update on my boicube progress! Basically, I just got back into saltwater tanks a few weeks ago! As the first pic should show I basically got 3 tanks for the price of 1/2 of a new biocube. They needed some new lighting for sure! The 3rd smaller tank didn't have a pump and a...
I just wanted to start a solid thread about my tank that isn't in the meet and greet forum lol.
I have a Biocube32 with the stock lights at the moment (though I do plan to upgrade when I have the money for it), with an intank media basket that has filter floss on the top shelf and packed with...

I have a reef glass skimmer currently but want to use that on my new 10 gallon. Any upgrades that you guys know will fit? I know the tunze is a popular one but want to compare it to others that will fit. thanks

I need a little help from you guys on an impulse purchase that happened over the weekend.
I have been wanting to add a nano tank for awhile and over the weekend I came across a 14g Biocube for $25... and without hesitation I snatched it up. I had already made up my mind that I would be...
I have seen some pretty amazing build threads on the forums. Being a new reefer (started my first tank in early April 2018) I didn't figure I would bring anything interesting to the mix with my humble biocube.
I never really introduced myself either. My name is Ryan. I was born in Kansas...
Hey guys!
So I'm looking into upgrading my powerhead to either an MP10 or a Nero 5. I have a 32-gallon biocube so I'm worried the nero could be a little too strong. I was thinking about getting it so that if I decide to upgrade one day I'd have a pump I could already use and wouldn't have to...

While I have had a tank for awhile, someone set it up for me. I know maintenance and fish care.
But I want to do a simple small tank (like a 32 gal or a 29 gal) that I set up myself from the start. The max I would go is 36 gallons.
I want a tank that can be used for fish quarantine then later...
I just received a 6 gallon Nanocube and was wanting to keep it simple but Beautiful...I have a 28gal coralife cube. I'm looking for some advice on what are some reef peaceful fish that stay small and some corals that would do good in it.
