JBJ has a new line of LED Nano Cubes and today we're going to look at the 24 gallon version.
Here are some specs on the new tank.
24-gallon LED Nano Cube:
No. of LEDs: 13 @ 1.3 watts each (10 x 10,000K and 3 x 20,000K)
Approximate PAR readings:
420 at 2”
265 at 6”
80 at 12”
Dimensions: 18″ (L) x 19.6″ (W) x 19.7″ (H)
Capacity: 24 gallons
Power Supply: AC110V-60Hz
Pump (included): 290 GPH
Ah it was like Christmas when it arrived! (even though I am giving this bad boy away, more to come on this)
Box within the box was packed tight without movement.
In the background my 135g rimless looks on with a bit of anticipation and jealousy.
Very well packed and protected. Top and bottom have thick styrofoam fitted caps that hug the corners.
And then just as I was expecting to see it, another layer of protection!
I could have sworn it smiled at me.
First impression was that it was pretty sleek and well built. Plastic was not thin and seemed robust.
FEED...
ME.. (more to come on this later as well)
Top was easy to lift and the hings locked nicely into place.
WARNING!
Individual LED's seems to be put together well and with care. (no led expert here though)
LED brother and sisters.
Nice and clean!
Separate lighting switches for the LED lighting colors.
It's ALIVE!
Ready to be made into a box of reefing love!
The Ultimate miniature Biotope!
JBJ is pleased to announce the next generation of nano-cubes to our ever growing list of JBJ Aquarium Products. The newest models reflect the same classic nano cube look that has proven successful for almost a decade a now but has been combined with more efficient technology. Most notably these new next-gen nano cubes have replaced the hot power compact bulbs that necessitate annual to bi-annual replacement with a cool running, long lasting, low power consumption LED lighting system. JBJ continues to prove that small things really do come in small packages. Whether you are a novice aquarist trying his or her hand at their first freshwater aquarium or an advanced marine aquarist looking to add a nano-reed to your desk, JBJ has the right tank for you.
Advanced Features:
24 Gallon Glass Cube, still in place in the next generation nano-cubes are the patented curved glass, which allow for a unique and dynamic panoramic view of your aquarium and all of its inhabitants.
Integrated 3-Stage Filtration
Being an all inclusive biotopic system for aquatic denizens the nano-cube has discreetly hidden in the rear of the tank a small yet powerful and effective 3 stage filtration chamber system. The first chamber includes an intake with a protective screen, the second chamber is empty and can be utilized with the included filter media or any other media you see fit. The third chamber consists of a quiet and efficient 106 GPH return pump which directs water back into the display area of the nano-cube via a directional nozzle. Filter media included with your nano cube;
Mechanical/Biological – Sponge filter which will trap detritus and particulate matter. Sponges are also often a breeding ground for beneficial in-fauna like copepods as well as denitrifying bacteria.
Chemical – Activated Carbon is included, which aids in absorbing organic and chemical compounds such as medication from the water.
Biological – Ceramic Rings and Plastic Bio-Media is also included, these too serve as breeding grounds for beneficial bacteria that assist in breaking down harmful organics such as ammonia and nitrites.
Fan-Cooled
Despite utilizing the much cooler running LED lighting system, the next generation Nano Cubes still include (2) 50x50mm cooling fans within the canopy to aid in cooling and aeration of the electrical equipment in the canopy to prevent damage via humidity build up.
My over all opinion of the CUBE is that it is well built and not clunky in any way. The overall look of the tank is sleek and seems to be well designed. The lighting seems to be very powerful and allows you a nice option for color considering this is an all in one reef aquarium. In my most humble opinion, a job well done by JBJ.
