Hello,
I currently have a fluval and I have the bio cube I just need to stuff to fill it and filter it. In my Fluval, I have aphasia and bubble algae and I don't really want to deal with it in the bio cube. I have 16 pounds of live rock in there but like I said it has bubble algae and aphasia. Currently, I am thinking about getting 10-20 pounds of dry rock off of BRS and at the LFS. As of filtration, I have Instant Ocean HoldFast Epoxy Stick, Fish Safe, CerMedia MarinePure 1.5-Inch Sphere Bio-Filter, seapora 4040 filter floss, and lastly CaribSea Arag Alive 20 lb Fiji Pink Sand. I have all of these in my cart to purchase but what are your thought? I currently have 2 heaters, Bio cube Protein Skimmer. What are your thoughts and how should I cycle it.

Good luck. It might be easier to fight the aptasia and algae. A new tank could just repeat the same thing
