nanocube questions?
- Thread starter maubee
- Start date
If you already rinsed it you should be ok fill up a dish of water and agitate it then a quick rinse with the hose on the kitchen sink should do it . I did not think you already tried rinsing it you will never get all the "extra junk" out of it you mainly want the extra dust out :mrgreen:

About the heater doesnt matter were you put it but mine is in the 3rd chamber cause there is more space in that chamber cause all the things i have in my other chambers....and about carbon deposits they will be suck by the filter again so i dont think will be a issue but next time try to use chemi-pure (another kind of carbon but is much better than regular carbon). and the tiny hole is there for a reason but not sure why and mine has it too.....
looks like you just got your nanocube....i dont know if someone already told you but dont use the bioballs or biorings ....get some liver rock rubble and put that instead of all that crap that will not help you system only a place to accumulate trash... and the rubble is better for you filter media and 3 sponges are too much so try to leave one or two in the 1st chamber ....a good thing to do is leave 1 only and every 2 days or so take it out rinse it let it dry and mean while put another one of your extra ones and go like that to keep it cleaner...but is up to you.... HTH
P.S: get a surface skimmer

you dont need a light for the LR only if you want to put chaeto so you'll need a refugium light and no im not using the powerhead anymore i upgrade to a Maxi jet 900 with a hydro flo but if you got the nano cube 2006 the stock pump will give you nice flow.
1 chamber>>> LR rubble and on top one sponge
2 chamber>>> LR rubble
3 chamber>>> heater, pump, only a piece of LR and a bag of chemi-pure.

The 110v/60hz just indicates that the pump is designed to run on 110 volt 60 cycle electricity which is what we use in America, nothing to worry about.
If there is a label with a serial number on the back of your tank you have an '06 model with the upgraded return pump. If not use either a MiniJet 606 (most common) or use a MJ 900 like Eddy uses.
