My Oceanic 29 BioCube

[bubbasguppies]

Hello everyone. My name is Martin and I've been lurking this site for quite awhile. Am usually on my local clubs site (SCMAS) as 89delta. So here goes.....I currently run an Oceanic 29 BioCube that I've modified the back filtration area to. In the first chamber I have an AquaticLife Nano Skimmer, pH probe and temp sensor, the second chamber I run chemi-pur and macro algea, the third I have my heater and return pump.

I have around 25-35# of LR and a 4" DSB. Currently home to LPS,SPS and softies.

For control I am currently using a ReefAngel. Lighting consists of a DIY LED setup running 24 3w LEDs across two channels (16* BL,Rb n UV, 8* 10,000k) on a custom LDD-L driver/controller board.

Nice stuff.

How do you like the skimmer? Can it be put in the back chamber with the lid closed? The biocube skimmer stinks!

If you remove the "plates" that hold the filter in place it will fit perfectly in the first chamber. I actually like the skimmer better than the biocube one. Seems to pull out more gunk.
