It feels good just to stay it and get it out there. I wish my family and friend understood my addiction. Thanks for the support.

Hi Steve, This addiction is fine until you start selling your wife and kid's belongings to pay for it. Hopefully you can catch yourself in time;)
On another note, your tank is just stunning! Well done!

Holy cow! Why is it every cube I see on here for some reason usually looks better(aquascaping etc) than a standard tank..

I think it's due to the extra width. Most cubes have a width of at least 24". I have a 36"x36" cube and the width can open up lots of aquascaping possibilities.

Sweet glass box bro. I'm thinking cube for my next project.

It's funny when you call it a glass box. That's exactly what it is.

Hi Steve, This addiction is fine until you start selling your wife and kid's belongings to pay for it. Hopefully you can catch yourself in time;)

Does selling your xbox for corals count?

I think it's due to the extra width. Most cubes have a width of at least 24". I have a 36"x36" cube and the width can open up lots of aquascaping possibilities.

+1 on that, my idea size would be 36x36x24

Beautiful cube! I've always admired from afar. Definitely looks like it's time for an upgrade!

Thanks!

Looking good Steve, the RHs are a great addition...:wink:

How did you know about the RHs? I just put them in a hour before I took the picture!

It looks like you have led's exclusively on there, which kind do you have? With all those colors in there you sure your last name isn't Tyree;)

HAH no, not Tyree but thanks. I'm using all Ecoxotic LEDs. Very happy with them.

I Think you need some more corals! ..lol

I have an order from Mr. Coral showing up tomrorow ;) . No seriously, I do... I can't stop.

steve your cube is the bomb!! your coral is popping i want to have a cube one of these days.

Thanks!

DO IT!

Sweet! A teachable moment for me :) It stands for reef ready... now I have this feeling of superiority;)

Too funny. I had to hold back a laugh so my wife didn't wake up.

sweet tank, would love to see more pictures.. =]

I was actually planning on taking more pictures but I forgot what time it was and the lights turned off in the tank after I only took 3 shots. I'll take some more shots because you guys are the only ones that share and addiction with me.
