Decided to start my tank thread and share my experience with all my fellow reefers. I was running a 30 cube for about 8 months when I came across a sweet deal on a complete 50 gallon artisan cube setup. So I decided it was time to upgrade, like everyone eventually does. Equipment list and livestock as listed:
-50 cube
-Maxspect Razor LED
-Mp-20
-Rw-4
-200 watt heater
-20gallon eshops sump
-Tunze ATO

-40 pounds of TBS live rock
-2 black and white Ocy
-1 Molly Miller blenny
-1 clown goby
-1 pink spot goby
-1 blue chromis

Will update with pics and coral list soon.
 
Awesome! Welcome to club cube :)

I have a 50g cube too.
 
Can't figure out how to edit my first post so I will add pics and corrections here.

Really nice tank, love Molly millers! :)
 
Pictures look like garbage, taken with my LG G3. I had to redo the original plumbing because I wanted to go with the herbie method, all the coralline died on my back wall because it took me longer than I thought it would to get the plumbing done. It should color back up eventually.
 
Haha. I think your update needs to be an actual update :)
 
LOL, you might be right. So I recently added a yellow tang and coral banded shrimp to my setup, will post a new pic soon..
 
Tank still chugging along, having issues with my zoas but all fish and lps seem happy..
