    Thanks for the nice comments. I did have to big bumps. 1) The original 2 clowns died - I got them from a LFS that is fantastic, but all the clowns they got in this batch didn't make it. I called ORA and they said it was likely a bacterial infection that developed during shipping. I waited a...

    Alright, it's been what, a month now? Here are some new pics. This tank cycled in like a week - I guess I got lucky. Full tank Shot... not too exciting. But slow and steady is the way to go. I added snails and hermits a couple weeks ago, then some mushrooms and 2 ORA false percs...

    Chubosco, I did not mean to cause you alarm. From my personal experience I wouldn't consider calling a tank successful/call the methods and equipment I use successful until well past a year. That is all I meant by the mention of "years." Observations of what works and does not work...

    Chubosco, you have a nanocube? how long has it been up for? I feel that a protein skimmer is necessary because I am not personally aware of anyone that has been able to have a successful reef tank using only LR,LS, cleanup critters and refugium/macro. By successful I mean a system that has...

    I returned the cube. Some seem to have success with these but I want a skimmer on the back 24/7 I'm getting a 12g with a box in the back with a surface skimmer and to place for heater and remora skimmer. This setup is more expensive, but way better. Woof

    Help -Nanocube 12 DX and protein Skimmer / filtration

    Hi All, I just purchased a nanocube 12 DX and need to figure out what protein skimmer will work. Has anyone cut out the back/top of the canopy and put a remora or other quallity hang-on skimmer on one of these? I tried a Prizm a couple of years ago on a different tank and immediately...
