I have received a custom Biocube from a friend and I was told that it had been setup for over a year. Just from the looks of it, it certainly does need some tlc. I do have fluval 13.5 with tons of coral that I would like to move into the tank eventually. But I would like to hear others' thoughts about the tank, what to look out for with this brand, and also would you personally think this would be worth salvaging/cleaning up at a glance?

What it came with:

- Hood with AI LED's
- Pumps
- second compartment is filled with bioballs
- has multiple pumps
- Rock

Plans:

- Find a sufficient stand
- Clean it up
- Potentially replace screws that are rusted
- Test for leaks

I say double-check everything to see if there are any leaks or damages, if not? you could clean it up and have a spare tank on hand

I was cleaning it up today and was testing for leaks. So far everything looks pretty good once everything got a proper cleaning. Though when I was looking for stands, I really couldn't believe the price of a stock stand.
