Hello everyone! just a bit about myself before I get into the tank! I started the saltwater journey a few months ago with a 6 gallon fluval edge that I later decided to get myself a biocube from tax season. I started this tank with 20 pounds of live sand and roughly 30 pounds of base rock. It took me forever to build the scape I have and absolutely love it now! My tank has been up and goinbg for about 2 months now so going to show some photos of the early stages until now. I have upgraded my biocube with a Intank media basket and fuge, also using the reefkeeper for a controller and will be adding an ATO soon. Im running chemi-pure elite and purigen with poly filter. The heater im using is a neo therm and just waiting until tomorrow until my hydor slim skim skimmer arrives with my fuge light to get that setup. The stock includes one true perc clown, 2 pajama cardinals, a scooter blenny, purple firefish and a sixline wrasse. I have a nice CUC that's doing a wonderful job! So onto the pics!

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
