Figured it was time to start the build thread, so here we go! I have had saltwater FOWLR tanks on and off for the past 15 years (always wanted coral was just to scared to pull the trigger). I started the Biocube about 7 years ago because my son wanted a fish tank, figured the wife couldn't say no to her baby haha! Santa brought him a fully stocked Biocube complete with live rock, sand, banded shrimp, chocolate chip starfish, urchin, clownfish and 2 blue damsels (oddly I can't find any pictures of it ). It was running smooth for about 2 years and then we decided to move to Florida and enjoy some sunshine! I sold off the fish and thought I would just move the Starfish, urchin and shrimp. They did not enjoy the move and ended up passing on shortly after. So I let the tank sit in the dark with very few water changes or other maintence, reason for that is that my daughter was born. So the tank sat for 5 years give or take a couple of months. My wife got tired of seeing this dark box sitting in the corner of the living room and gave me the green light to start the reboot.
He is everyones favorite!!
It was supposed to be a FOWLR tank but after stopping at an awesome LFS @TopShelfAquatics I got on their live sale and ended up pulling the trigger on a coral (it was all downhill from there as my better half keeps reminding me)!
