yeah the lighting is metal halide, 150w or something. so lighting isnt going to be a problem. thanks for the info about the skimmer. i do water changes every saturday so water quality isnt too much of a problem... i know i could get a nicer normal looking tank for less, but theres...

the size 14 biocube is actually around ten gallons with the rock/sand in place. the numbers dont represent gallons for some weird reason... but the mods are really run and easy. i would just get some submersible LEDs (3-4 watts) and plunk em down in the middle or third chamber w/ some...

ok then its settled, im going for the jbj. ill probably order it around december ill post pics once it gets here :DDD

thanks, youre not late :) i would build my own tank, but i really have no idea/experience in this// so i can see how it would ever work out if i tried to build a custom setup. i think im going to go with the jbj, it will be more aestetic than me building/customizing a setup.. the...

lol a tie? i think im going to go with the jbj with metal halide lighting. nanotuners has what looks like a good one... any other small all in one systems you guys have to share

Which setup do you guys think i should go with? 1) the new JBJ nanocube HQI 29gallon http://www.nanotuners.com/product_info.php?cPath=68&products_id=435&osCsid=12b4d6c55ff85dda4b1c3bb42575c04a 2) or the red sea max? im looking to get a decent setup as an upgrade from my biocube 14...

yeah! you can do it! im 19, you just have to believe man ;-) lets see some pics

awesome, zoos are my new favorite :razz:

Heres some pics of my biocube 14, thats been up and running for about three months, ive got: 1x true perc 1x blue damsel thing (giving to a friend) 1x finger leather coral 1x torch coral (its growing a new head, i dunno if you can see in the pics) 3x lazy hermits 4x even lazier snails...

i would avoid using any chemicals in general. the ideal parameters are all zero nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia.. itll balance out after around a month or so..

dont they have some kind of powder on them to keep from cracking/getting hard? in freshwater people use those gloves that come with hair dye... the super thin ones that are like sandwich bags for your hands... :roll:

ive been looking around for a bakpak type sump that is compatible with the oceanic biocube 14... i simple dont have the room for anything much larger, and i like the idea of going topless, with a hang on sump with viper lighting system... does this sound like a decent setup to you guys...

this guy mustve snuck in with my LR... at first i was on a quest to capture him, but hes left my coral alone and seems to be eating hair algae.. sorry about the bad pics. they were taken with my phone, as i walked past the tank as was like "what the...?" hes brownish/redish in color...

i have this coral as well, i cant remember exactly... soft Sinularia species? i think that sounds right.. :pom

yeah its totally opened up now, and looks much brighter... thanks. and ill make sure no one drops it for the rest of its days :lol:
