the biocube looks great..
I just picked up a biocube 29 weeks ago.
I'm learning a lot from your thread.

Love the rock structure.

Thanks Titus.

I am happy to read This thread is helping someone else! Thanks.
I Love this tank. I think what has helped ommensley is I am not in a hurry. I don't even have a fish in quarantine yet. and I only bought what I liked for corals not because they were rare morphs.

The rockwork took me days! lol I like it but would have liked more sandbed exposed for corals.

I picked up a Pom Pom crab that has his anemone's! They are hard to get here I find. they are always missing their "Pom Pom's"

I finally have a fish in the QT I picked up 2 Barnacle blennies. Love them!

Struggling with quality pics still. I Borrowed a Canon powershot SX20 IS
Hoping Santa brings me a T3I for xmas.



I see you!


Had to take pics of this guy with his feeder tentacles out. I didn't realize how long they are, I can see some of them from across the room. It is a darker green than the pic shows of course.

Picked up a few more corals.








This Frogspawn is Green tipped but the rest of its color is about what you see. I think my Hammer on the left was starting to bleach from the lights. I backed them down to 48%

The Hammer in the back is a green tipped in the store it was really Pink almost red. under my LEDs it is washed out purple/pink. I am not loving the radion so far.

Before I cleaned the tank I took this crappy iphone video. funny how it shows the colors of the corals much better than my camera.

I added a red banded Yasha goby and red banded pistol today, within a few minutes he had the underside of the rock all dug out. I'm not happy with how shy the yasha is but, something else to look for while staring at my tank
I also had a Tail Spot Blenny in QT but sadly he didn't make it. I'm not sure it is a fish that can be Qt'd with a lot of success.

Will have a better update later this week.

I got my refugium running! I will add the sand and rubble slowly over the next couple of weeks. I need to find a better light, that is just a regular lightbulb.
I've been trying to find something I can hang over the tank that will look better than the clamp light.

The DT is a little cloudy from messing with it so much. The measuring cup is holding my Sun coral frag I have been trying to train to come out.

A t5 fixture would work great over the fuge
