I have a biocube that is approx 10 months old. Have some coral LPS, 2 clowns, diamond goby, fire goby, yellow goby, pajama cardinal, Red shrimp, star fish and pencil urchin and some crabs with a pink fiji sand bed...would love to redo the aquascape, would I be ok in doing so? Would be Marco dry rock....

I could buy a cheap 20 gallon tank, transfer everything then redo Biocube and transfer back??

Or would it be ok just to redo/replace the rock?

You can just replace the rock. Keep the sand and you should be just fine. That dry Marco rock will take a while to look good, but it is nice rock.

Agreed that the kept-sand should be enough. Of course, if it's the 32-gallon BioCube, and some of the current rocks are small enough (or you are willing to bust some up, 'rubble rock' style), you probably have room in the chamber to throw some old rocks in back there if you'd like.
