Rookie with a Biocube 29. Hello!

GaltMech · Jan 1, 2019

Hello everyone! I’m brand new to the beautiful hobby. My best friend got me into salt water. I am so new, I haven’t even set up my Biocube yet. Waiting for some parts and accessories. Anyway, hello everyone and I’m sure I will be seeking out things to read here and hopefully interacting with all of you.

Hi! I have a Biocube 29 also! You will love it! Mine is an old school Oceanic. Not sure if you have Coralife...let me know what odds and ends you are looking for. I may have some!

I also have the old school oceanic. I recently have purchased a media basket for the center chamber as well as a upgraded pump for chamber 3. A protein skimmer is also on its way for chamber 1 made by coraline. I will definitely let you know how it works out and if I need anything.

Are you using a stock hood?

GaltMech · Jan 1, 2019

I am. Still with the 2 fluorescent bulbs and the LED’s

Me too!

How are your tank temperatures with the stock lights? It was a question I was wondering. Coming from freshwater I know that lights have a good effect on temps and reefs are more sensitive.
