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 ) :

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...
Hello all, first time poster! I learned a lot lurking here and hope to contribute more.
A week ago I told the lfs staff to bag me a Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse. It wasn’t until I got home that I realized he had bagged a Pintail Fairy Wrasse instead.
i have a BioCube32 mixed reef. I knew the...
I’ve been looking for some sort of wrasse that is active in my tank, but is also reed safe. It’s a 32 gallon reef, with lps and softies, don’t plan on keeping sps or clams anytime soon. My stocking will be pair of clowns, (clowns adults and already in the tank) and a yellow watchmen goby and...
Hello was wondering what people use in the biocubes to clean the front corners?
I tried to use a flipper and i scratched my tank a little bit. I went really slow and i just cant find a way to clean up the hard algae thats growing on the corners of my biocubes glass.
Just wondering what would be a better choice: The Tunze 9001 skimmer or the InTank refugium with chaeto and a growlight. Either way, I already have the InTank media basket. I've heard mixed opinions so I'm looking for advice. Let me know!
Most of the builds I've seen seem to either have the fuge + media basket or media basket +skimmer. Is it possible to run both, with the skimmer in chamber one and the fuge and media basket in chamber two?
Im looking for some stocking for my biocube 32, and really love the look and the movement a lot of wrasses seem to add to tanks. Right now I have 2 adult clowns, and would like to also add a captive bred mandarin, OR yellow watchmen font along with some sort of wrasse if I can find one suitable...
Hello all! New to reefing here, and just wanted to get some opinions on what we’ve got going on here. We got a 32 bio cube and so far everything is running fabulously and all of our lil fishies are doing great. Here’s a pic!
What’s in the tank:
Fish:
- 1 Blue Spotted Jawfish
- 2 Clowns
- 1...
