Just picked up a pioneer to the reef world. Old school biocube. The thing is mint. I just need the power adapters for the lights. I know it's a shot in the dark since it's been in a garage for 20 years.
It needs the 5 pin style.

Just a word of caution. I have this tank. They no longer make the bulbs for it. You may want to look at Steve's LEDS to swap out if you want your lid left in tact. They are an easy install. If you have bulbs, you can probably stretch it out for a year before the upgrade if you are doing lps and softies.

thats an awesome find.
Im still running a super old 32G biocube thats close to that old.
Ive long since ripped out the lights and replaced them with LEDs though. First inside the hood, then i ripped off the hood and now have an XR-15 Radion over it using the clamp on back lighting adapter.

I second this idea of looking into swapping out the current lights.

I think someone on eBay has one for sale now. You can also easily diy an adhesive moonlight strip if you can't find the other adapter
