After getting away from the hobby for the past 3 years when my daughter was born, I'm back at it and starting up my small biocube to keep things small scale for now while I regain my knowledge and learn the new things I have missed out on! Can't wait to see what it turns into!

Congrats. As a former biocube user I will say this. Remove and upgrade that hood light as soon as you can. It was trash. I do recommend using the multimedia basket. I also recommend the uv steralizer worked well. Other than that. Happy reefing. Modding them can make them acceptable!

I have been thinking about getting the AI Blade Grow and Glow but I’m not sure how well they work, also contemplating on buying the Radion G6 XR15 Blue but still deciding and reading as we speak

Typically carbon just for caution. It’s just useful to have if you find things going sideways. Also second sponge filter.
