JBJ 12 gallon Nano cube questions

Curious to know if you've done anything yet about the internal leak ?

I checked it out, and I think that it was just the hole underneath the overflow, I did a test with paper towel to see if a leak was in the silicone, and nothing significant showed up. The only thing Ive noticed is that the back chambers are starting to get a film on the top of the water, nothing in there but foam and polyfibre and purigen for first round cycleing, so far sg is 1.025 haha not testing yet since its all base rock and old cured live rock

Maybe it's not a big issue
Wouldn't hurt to find out what's going on

[Beano1169]

yes that is true, well I do have to move it soon so, hopefully then when I drain it I will figure out whats up. Ill keep you posted

Tank is setup, added some life stock all is good
nitrae sitting a bit high, so I will be adding a fuge in chamber 3 above the return pump to grow some cheato

But I have decided that I hate PC lighting, and need some ideas for either a retro fit stunner strip led system, or possibly a DIY project. Only problem is that I have heard the stunner strips get excessively warm, and also I have never done a DIY hood in my life.
If anyone has a build or a step by step on how to go about this upgrade/mod
I would be extremely greatful!
thanks.

ps pics up soon

I have a JBJ 12 that I will be listing for sale shortly, which has an LED retrofit (original lid), and refugium & skimmer... I'll direct you to the pictures when I get them up - I spend a bunch of time making it as slick as I could, maybe it'll help you out with some ideas.
