    IT CAME EARLY!! OOPS!!!

    A 50w heater is what i have, not sure what brand, thats up to you. yes, freshwater heaters also work for saltwater :D Chemipure and phosban are good things to put in the back. Also, you could make the back into a refugium by peeling off the black tape stuff, add a light (like a coralife 2x9w)...

    IT CAME EARLY!! OOPS!!!

    You should do just fine witht he stock lighting for LPS SPS are very light demand and need a stable tank with very clean water, something that is extremely difficult when you are a beginner. I use premixed water from my LFS :oops: because i dont want to mess anything up, haha I have...

    IT CAME EARLY!! OOPS!!!

    Congrates! Before you start anything, are you just going to keep the tank Fish Only with Live Rock? (fowlr) or are you going to be doing corals as well? If you do corals, what corals were you thinking? (softies?, LPS? or SPS<---not recommended) I would definately upgrade the stock pump...

    Future sticky for 12g nanocube modifications??

    fine fine, ill be the first to chime in :D Most people mod the all-in-one tanks with a fuge mod. They peal off the back tape material, than add a light, like the coralife 2x9w light on the back, or an azoo light. Then just add chaeto in the back chamber and maybe some live rock rubble and...

    12 gallon Nano Cube Deluxe: HELP!

    First Off, Welcome to Nanotank.com :D It really depends on what you want to keep. Do you want to do FOWLR (fish only with live rock) or reef? If you do reef, do you want to do softies, LPS or SPS? What most people do is add a maxijet 1200 in the back chamber for more flow, and some people add...

    Getting back into it, Just ordered a 12G Nanocube

    Well, im a nanocube guy, there are quite a few of us here :D the general rule of thumb is about 1-2 pounds of LR per gallon, the more the better. I personally used about 7 pounds in my nanocube 12 dx. As for sand, 1-2 inches is good, again, about 1 pounds or so per gallon. The only thing...

    20 gal.long or 14gal. nano cube

    if i were you, i would go with the 20L, but if you have your heart set on a nanocube, i would go with a nanocube 12 because those can be modded easier than the biocubes so far, www.nanocustoms.com have the mods and parts.

    20 gal.long or 14gal. nano cube

    I think that nano-reefs are pretty easy, you just have to put in the effort and money if you want to do one well. I always loved nanocubes, so i am biased toward them, but if you really like to customize your tank, go for the 20l. There are many more options for the 20 long than the nanocube...

    Problems!

    Well, how long have you had your tank up? how big are the water changes you are doing? Are you running carbon or anything to help with the levels? A refugium is also very helpful What i would do would be a good sized waterchange, 60-70 percent due to the anemone and other things dying...

    got my new aquapod 12g

    ok, do not use the bioballs or crematic rings. You can use the carbon and the sponge. Most people make the back into a refugium, by adding a light and some live rock rubble and some chaetomorpha (a type of macro algae that is very useful in exporting nutrients) Then other people use...
