biocube

Hello, I would like to get peoples input on what I should change my biocube lighting schedule too. I would like to add more blue light into the schedule. I don't really like running so much white light all the time. Only schedules i can find are people running with nothing but high % of white...

Hey guys any fellow Biocubers out there that can help me set up a schedule, I don’t think mine are correct even though to each is own but I need a better schedule. Please and thank you hopefully this was the correct place to post this thread, hope to hear from y’all

I have currently CPE but since I recently removed skimmer wanted to put something to get rid of phosphate I seen lot of post that says Chemi pure elite does not have phosphate removal to go with the blue but outside of chemi pure clearly says phosphate removal for the cpe can someone explain...

Hello! I’ve had this toadstool leather for about 5 months. It looks like it’s doing well and has grown considerably, however the polyps are not opening up all the way. They are extended but the green part has never been visible since I brought it home. When I picked it out at the LFS it had the...

I will need skimmer to fit on chamber 1 because the rest are full with other stuff and prefer skimmer on first one. Or anyone suggest any other good skimmer for Biocube 32 that is not the coralife Biocube one.

I'm super excited about this build. The Red Sea Reefer XXL 625. Tried to track all the progress as best as I could. Day 1: Modifying the filter It's an AquaMaxx AF-1 Automatic Filter Roller. First thing is the 4 rods that hold it together are extremely brittle. There are some thicker rods they...

I have had a biocube 30gal for about 5 years now and my fish disappear consistently. I have never found one even when I know it was there earlier in the day but isn't later in the day. I have looked up in the hood, the back in all 3 compartments, in the sand, under the rocks and have even torn...

I have been thinking about upgrading my lights to the AI Prime HD's instead of the biocubes base lighting. I was wondering if this is a good switch? Also I saw this video on how to cut a hole into the lid of the biocube remove the lights nad have the ai prime stick through the hole. Has anyone...

Is a 32 gal. Biocube worth it for my soon-to-be ocellaris clown pair? Also, please vote in my poll!

A little bit about myself, I've always been interested in marine life and never had the courage to try out a reef tank. My mother was a biology teacher and as a kid I was glued to anything the BBC produced that was related to the ocean. I spent my high school years working at a pet store in...

So I just got my very first Eshopps nano protein skimmer in my 16g biocube that I placed in the middle chamber. It was a bit of a tight squeeze but I got it to fit. I’ve had it for 1 day now and the bubbles will not stop coming out super fast regardless of the depth I place it. I fully...

Hi, I have these two mai tai clownfish and what is going on is that my tank passed through a wipe out of ich/velvet (I’m not sure to be honest) and all my fish end up dying so I just left the tank empty for 7 weeks the fallow period and just two weeks ago I bought these two clownfish (they...

Hi! I am about two months into my biocube 32 and have a few soft corals and one candy cane coral. They seems to do well when my return pump is off, they open up and are full, but shrink when it is on. I’ve tried to reposition the corals and the pump direction of flow via the return outlet, but...

Hi All! I am new to saltwater tanks and have purchased a used 29g Coralife Biocube. My plan is to start a reef tank with some suitable fish and softy/LPS corals. After a month or so of research on forums like R2R (thanks for the help already!), I decided to start a thread on the setup and...

Hey everyone, My biocube 16 (sps dominated) have been running for a year or more now, it has had a lot of algae issues sinces it started. It crashed not long ago but it is recovering now, im thinking of making an extra sump for it, it is a 20 gallon. Should i use the space for a skimmer or...

So, this biocube is an sps tank, it has been running for about a year or more, a few months ago i had to go out of town and other people were caring for my tanks, sadly nobody knew how to dose and stuff so my sps tank crashed, although one large colony actually survived the crash. The tank is...

Hey guys, I’m setting up a BioCube 32. I have a bunch of types of media including purigen, matrix, bio balls, floss, and crushed rubble. My question is, how essential is it that all the water flows through the media? I have a bag of matrix that’s just kind of floating in a chamber in my cube, it...

Looking for options that I can keep my hood and my hood be functional with lights that preferably fit under the shield where the shock lights are. What fits in the space where stock lights are besides stevesleds and nanobox considered doing an ai on top but would have to stay in place when...

Was wondering what everyone has had success growing with stock biocube leds? Things you’ve tried and lights weren’t enough for? Considering switching lights eventually but I have to leave my hood on and don’t care too much for the look of a light on top of the hood.
