i think that's awesome. I'm really getting interested in biocube/nanoreef aquariums, but right now, I don't have a tank, nor enough knowledge to get me started.


i'd be glad to help you with info, if you had any questions......
 
I love seeing what people do with nano tanks. Not only does it give me ideas, but it removes the stigma that nanos are more work then larger tanks.

You have a very nice setup.

fisrt off thank you :)




nanos arent much work as long as you do water changes weekly. thats key to a successful nano. (and of course switch filter pads and regular matiance)
 
Are those true percs in your first picture, or are they semi-picassos?
 
Question: did you build that acrylic sump yourself? or do you have instructions for it?

you and the hobby make me want to get back into saltwater again; i'm going to limit myself to brakish and see what i can do!

may p.m. you p.

i had it custom built. i got it from lifereef (lifereef.com)

if you decide to go salt water, i highly recomend a biocobe! i love it.
 
I really like what you have done with your biocube! I also have a Biocube HQI and was wanting to do a sump build for it. I wanted to send you a pm about the sump to get more info on the specs and what not but im a new member and it wont let me PM. Can you pm me your email so I can ask you some questions about it?
