Hey everyone, well I just started my first reef tank about 2 weeks ago. Can't wait for my first corals. I purchased it from a friend and have all the cycled water, just going through a mini cycle now due to messing with the sand.

What I have:
Oceanic 29g Biocube
Maxi-Jet 1200 main pump
Tunze 9002 skimmer
InTank Acrylic Skimmer Cup
InTank Acrylic 3 stage media basket
2 Koralia Powerheads 425s
Oceanic UV Sterilizer
30lbs of live sand
15lbs of dead rock
15lbs of live rock
Clean up crew of snails and hermits
1 three stripped damsel

My avatar is my tank. Will upload more later
 
Grats on your new tank and welcome to R2R
