biocube 32

While getting my Biocube 32 together and ready I had a couple questions on current and future upgrades of equipment. 1. lighting: I was looking at Steve’s LED upgrade. Is this something I could add in later? I’d like to start cycling the aquarium soon and not sure if I want to wait till I can...

I need advice and help from some reefers who have some experience. I want to start my first saltwater tank. In the past I’ve had freshwater and planted tanks, but never saltwater and certainly not with live corals. I have been interested and done some research over the past four years. My friend...

I currently have a Hydra 16 HD on my 32 Gallon biocube. Looking for an upgrade and i have 3 options. Anyone using 1 of these 3? Whats your pros and cons. I’m just wanting to get a better spread and have better par all around the tank. Would like to be able to keep a clam no issues. Also if I...

I’m moving my damsel to my 16 gallon. I want to add the following to my 32 and need some help deciding 2 clowns (for sure) Royal gramm/orchid dottyback Yellow corris wrasse wpuld the dottyback or the gramma be better? My rock scape is very flat at the moment because of my engineer goby who...

Hey all. I’m new to the forum and to saltwater tanks. In the past I’ve had several different fish tanks. All have been freshwater. For the last 4 years I’ve given a lot of thought to a nano reef tank. Finally decided to go for it, so I’m getting a 32 gallon LED Biocube on Saturday. I’m going to...

I’ve got a 32 gallon biocube led. It’s currently occupant is one four stripe damsel and a ****ton of coral. I’m moving my damsel to my new 16 gallon. I want to know what would work best in my 32. My wife is insistent on clowns. I’m thinking some common clowns. Small ones. next I want to add...

Hi all, see my build thread for background if you want :) This is about removing the hinges attached to the biocube ( the lid is already removed ). I am trying to think of the best way to get my skimmer to fit, and this hinge is the only thing getting in the way for placing in chambers 2 and 3...

*Edit I clicked SPS by accident. Not sure how to move or delete this thread New to this hobby, see my build thread for tank type / setup. Water params are all good < .25 ppm ammonia( detects but never gets to first color zone of api drop tester kit), 0 nitrite, and < 5ppm nitrate. Sorry if...

So I’ve been running my new biocube for about two months. My wife and I took PAINS to make sure the stand was level. Well I get the tank on and my four foot level (which by the way is WAY too long to go on top of the tank without hanging over) is showing that the tank is dipping to one corner by...

Tank started Dec 31st 2020. I would like to start out by saying I very recently started this hobby. I have two fresh water tanks that are about 3 months old now. I wanted more... and so here we are. I went to my LFS ( Austin Aqua Dome ) : https://www.austinaquadome.com/ And purchased a...

Back when I was first looking into getting a mandarin I wish there had been more documented "case studies" of people keeping them. My research in early 2020 and now pretty much leads to the same conclusions: 1) People who say they cannot be kept in an aquarium under 75 gallons and less than 2...

Biocubes are known for their lack of cooling with a hood on. I have solved this by creating a bracket to hold a computer fan in one of the cable ports. It is available on Thingiverse for those of you who have a 3d Printer. Snaps right into place. - Hooked into my Inkbird controller and I never...

My old biocube cracked . I’ve been in a thrown together mess for months. My new biocube is finally in and put together, for now. My wife also got a protein skimmer, first time I’ve used one and man does it make a difference.

My wife got me a coralife protein skimmer for Christmas. How much air should I allow into the skimmer? I’m not sure how many bubbles are too many. I’ve got the air dialed all the way back right now until I figure out how far to let it open. I had the same skimmer on my older biocube and it was...

Hello everyone, I’ve been planning the stocking list for my Biocube 32 & am curious if a Diamond Goby & Starry Blenny would get be compatible in this tank? In order I would stock it as follows: Pink Streaked Wrasse x 1 Diamond Goby x 1 Starry Blenny x 1 Mocha Storm Clownfish x 2 Sound good...

Hi! I’ve been thinking about future stocking for my biocube 32, and have considered the valentini puffer, they seem really neat but I am wondering if there are any cleanup crew they won’t eat. I’ve heard they defiantly would eat shrimp, but what about bigger snails? Or serpent starts or...

I am looking to see if a golden dwarf morray eel would work in the setup I have now. It is a 32 gallon biocube, I have 2 clowns and a small melanurus wrasse (he’s small now and I am rehoming him when he gets too big). Would the tank be too small to sustain him? Liveaquaria says 30 is min but...

My tank had its 6 month anniversary yesterday and I'm itching for some SPS. The parameters have been stable for a while now and I test twice a week and track on an excel sheet to make sure they stay that way. This tank has gone exceptionally smoothly, literally only one thing has died and it was...

Hi all! I have a 32g that's been up and running for about six months now, though it only got its first fishy inhabitant in August. It currently has three occupants at the moment - two Ocellaris clownfish, and a very tiny "yellow" watchman goby (that isn't yellow at all). Trying to decide which...

I started a new tank about two weeks ago and used Dr. Tim's and biospira to start the tank. This is in a 32 gallon biocube. I have 2, 3 year old clownfish and a brand new cardinal who was kinda the guinea pig to see if the tank was safe before putting in my beloved clowns as well as a small...

My first saltwater tank after keeping a 75g freshwater for 8 years. Wasn't sure about upkeep so I didn't want to go all in, and decided the Biocube 32 would be a good intro for me. Sumps and skimmers seemed beyond my capacity (and budget) so an all in one was the best choice for me to see how I...

This is my new biocube 32 I started a couple weeks ago, 25lb of live sand and 1 6lb live rock along wit some dry rock and two clowns, waiting on it to mature more before I do anything eles to it, fish are eating great and seem very happy, if you have one of these tanks what do you run your...

Hello everyone, I am in the process of starting up a Biocube 32 & working on the aquascape, I’m trying to get an idea of what kind of fish & corals I want to keep in the tank. I’m trying to go by the 1/2in to gallon ration for fish & have a total of 15in or adult fish in the tank. As far as...
