So scored a biocube on Craigslist for basically free, built a stand from scrap wood and it's now up and running but I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with it....anemone tank? Mushroom tank or just another peaceful reef tank with a mix of everything. Anybody else have some established biocubes to show off?

Which size Biocube did you get? I've got a 12 gallon Nano cube with a good blend of softies, LPS and SPS, as well as a BTA. Everything is coexisting well but the huge swings that come with a nano can be a pain sometimes. Great job crafting the stand-- I'll definitely be following this thread!

It's a 29 gallon and thanks for the compliment. Thinking of putting the refugium set up in the back as well as a tunze skimmer depending on what I decide to do.

Make sure to stick with LPs coral and soft coral unless you decide to upgrade your light
