I just purchased a biocube led 32 gallon aquarium and Decided to use Nutri sea water so I had it delivered through the carrier and I think some of the sea water was frozen. Will this not be suitable anymore for my reef aquarium???

You can still use it- Just allow it to get to room temperature back to liquid form

Welcome! Glad you joined. See you already got a response about just let the water thaw back to liquid before using.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread under Forum > Member Aquariums and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This might help you find people local to you in Escanaba:

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

Brrrr..........that's cold.

At some point you may find it is cheaper and certainly more convenient to make ro/di water and add a salt mix, especially if you plan on doing regular water changes. Worth running the numbers.

I like the Biocube 32 and there are many references on R2R concerning upgrades to consider.

Good luck in the hobby

Hello!!!
 
Welcome to R2R! You’ll find that the people here are awesome, ready to help, and quite knowledgeable. We’re glad you joined! Hopefully you’ll start a build thread so we can see your reef as it progresses.

As I recall NSW freezes at 28F. It sure must have been cold for that to have frozen.
