Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
This lighting a reef thing is driving me crazy...
Quality lights are so expensive my goodness...
Too true!
 
I didnt either. Very bad luck.. been there a couple months with no issues. I think he used to go in there, but has since grown, so this time, got stuck.
That's insightful man. We all learn from things like these. We try so hard, but It's so hard to predict all this
 
How do yall feel about powerstrips in the cabinet? I did it on my 120, but thats really because I didnt have much of a choice. But wondering if I should try and keep them out of the biocube stand?
I couldn't do it without them...? I like kasa because you can program the slots and use the app to run everything
 
PetCo also sells a few accessories. My pump stopped after about a year and I had put in a small Sicce and was much quieter than the stock one was.
Love me some sicce products
 
Goodnight kev. Lemme share a picture of what a biocube looks like

This makes my heart happy Mike. Let your mind go crazy on this. Let it be your low stress, easy, pretty tank!

I think he's asking about inside or outside the cabinet but I'm not positive.

Lol that makes more sense. I was wondering what else you would use.
