ahhh the bio cube a turn key saltwater tank....or so they would have you believe. You even look at those wrong and they go haywire,try to adapt it and your in even bigger trouble. Some advice to people thinking about buying one,take your money and have the glass cut to make your own pimpin 14gal complete with overflows big enough and adaptable enough to run various equpiment. For the same price you can build or buy an eqivalent tank and some proper equipment to run it.....thats my own personal opinion anyway ,goodluck with the intake problem.

I actually quite like my BC14... I also have a BC8 primarily for my suncorals... easier to feed. I experiemented with using the "stock system" for the BC8, but eventually yanked out the foam and filter. Left all the Bio Balls and it's actually doing a great job.
The BC14, I yanked everything out and didn't even put in any LR in place of... It's quite the detritus trap either way...

Yeah i like the Biocube Ive had my fair share of problems like my fan going or my ballast blowing. But i knew that when purchasing what i was getting into. The reason i like the biocube. Is presentation, its nice to have everything in one tank no cords or equipment hanging all over the place, and its not a living room eyesore.

Definently agree with you on that. Luckily i got mine for $149, so i don't feel so bad. So far, nothing has gone wrong, and i haven't had to modify it significantly in any way. That will probably change in time. Still a cool product thats made very generalized, yet adaptable. I'll try to get some pics of my 2 tanks. I have them side-by-side so its quite the visual piece in the livingroom.
