wanted to share my Biocube, very young tank and everything is thriving.. Equipment includes: Biocube skimmer, 2nd chamber = carbon, phosguard, poly filters and I'm using the foam block from the sump as a pre filter, Biocube UV light on the return line, rw4 wave maker and I added extra LED light strips to the hood for a total of about 60w over 11.3 gallons and I added a extra cooling fan to the hood..
 
Beautiful tank! I love the biocubes. I had one before I had to quit the hobby. You've really done well with this tank!
 
Really nice tank, how long has it been running? Everything's looks really good. I see your in northern va. Are you getting any snow? I'm in Virginia beach and it's been snowing here, lol , can't believe it. :rolleyes:
 
Thanks guy's.. The Biocube is perfect for me, I love the all in one with no sump or hang on equipment and it is SO easy to maintain compaired to my 90 gallon system... The tank is only 6 weeks old and the first corals where just added 4 weeks ago, let the flaming begin :D
 
Another top down shot.. Got a little carried away with the rock (15lbs) I may remove some as I would like to have a little more exposed sand bed.. The positive it allows me to run a higher bioload

Thanks.. I may have a custom nano cube built at some point with everything I like about the Biocube incorporated as well as some upgrades like a larger (wider) filter/sump area but I don't see myself going much over 20 gallons for now.
 
Nice rockscape, and nice zoa colonies. All that deep purple coralline tells me you have a very healthy tank!
