Just set up my first saltwater tank - Oceanic Biocube 8. I googled "Biocube 8 reef tank" and found myself here. Just introduced two clowns and three corals yesterday. So far so good . . .
Thats awesome. Full tank shot.

I need to rehome about 30 or 40 of these actinodiscus. Any tips on how to get them off the rocks? Can I just cut them loose or...? I started with 5 and now they've covered every spare speck of rock in my nano. There's close to 100 now.

I am brand new to saltwater. My son got an 8 gallon bio cube. I know this is too small, but I promised I'd try. I have 1 piece of dead coral for decor and that's it. We hope to have 2 tiny fish and maybe 2 shrimp. We also like hermit crabs. What equipment, substrate would you guys suggest? I'd like to use easy (forgiving) live macro algae to help balance this tank. Please be kind with responses. I have been called names elsewhere and was referred here to learn.
Hello katrina, I was wondering where you got the 8 gallon biocube I have been trying to find one but they seen to be discontinued everywhere, thank you.

Cut with a razor blade at the very base. Add a pouch of chemipure blue which will absorb any toxins from the cutting and dont let the word toxins scare you. Not deadly toxins
