Nice vid. Are you using the Biocubes stock lighting?

I really like your setup man. I ordered the same tank and it should be here in a few days. Any advice on getting started. I will be adding the protein skimmer recommended. Anthing thing you can suggest would be great.

The best recommendation I can give you to get started with your biocube is get live rocks and sand right off the bat. Let it cycle for at least 2 weeks and be patient. That’s the hardest part. Test your water regularly and dont add any livestock until your your levels are in the acceptable range. The Protein Skimmer can wait until your tank is populated. Good luck with your tank!

Thanks! Yes I’m just using stock lighting. I dont see any reason to upgrade for now.

Well I got my tank in the mail today and the bottom was shattered. I called the company I ordered it from and they filed a report with UPS. It should take 3 to 10 days before I get my money back, and then i’m gonna buy my tank locally. Thanks for the tip.

Sorry to hear that man. That’s a bummer. Try to work out a deal with the local store. My bro in Cali just bought one and the store matched the online price which is unheard of before our economy crashed. Most local businesses are struggling and they are just looking to move their merchandise just to break even. I’m pretty sure you can get one at a discount at worst.

nice tank mate

Great nano you have there…

Great set up! About how many pounds of live rock is in there?

Thanks! I have about 12+ lbs inside the tank and 2.5 lbs in the back in place of the Bioballs. I also started with the Seachem Reef Plus supplement 2 weeks ago with great results and have been feeding my LPS and inverts with Phyto Feast. I’ve also extended my 20% water changes every other week from 1x a week and my system seems to like that better. Good luck if you’re just starting out and be patient. You’re patience will pay off, guaranteed.
