Hello! I’m Jean from Bradenton, Florida. We just bought a biocube 32. It was technically suppose to be beta fish pet for our four year old son but it turned into a reef biocube 32. I’ve joined about a month ago and just doing all kinds of research to help get started. The tank has been cycled now and so far (fingers crossed) doing good. Will definitely be posting questions often as I’ll need all the advice I can get if I can’t find it on the internet.
I’ll post my cube on the build thread!

Welcome, Jean.

I’m new here myself, tank about to turn 4 months old…it’s been a great resource, having everyone here to discuss things with.

Take it with a grain of salt thought, lots of different opinions on dang near everything, but still a lot of fun and SUPER helpful when starting out.
