Just purchased an AI Prime HD+ to replace the stock BC 16 LED's.. I've been attempting to do as much research about the two to compare but I've been having difficulty finding details about the stock lighting in the BC16. This is a definite upgrade correct? If it's minimal improvement/difference...
Hello all! Fairly new to saltwater and am seeking general advice/tips from anyone. This includes the algae blooms I’m getting 2 months in, modifications, etc. My first main question is regarding light.. although I have the LED fixture that comes stock I am aware it is not the best by any means...
32 stock biocube lights, let’s see your 3 scheduled programs what’s working for you .... my corals color is good but growing a little slow lately, maybe mine need a tweak, softies and some medium light lps only
I’ve cut & customized a lot on my BioCube 29 HQI over the years, but I’d really like to ditch the plate glass top and put in a mesh screen. Given the fact that only two of the corners are square, it’s probably going to have to be a custom top, but if someone has already gone through the process...
recently picked up a nice canister filter for cheaper then it should have been couldn't pass it up , Now my question is can I turn the back of my biocube into a large refugium taking out all the media just running rubble rock or mud and a lot of chato and other moss. Then running all my media in...

I think I nailed it first try, is that even possible? Now I took lots of pics but should I also epoxy and glue pieces that I can to make sure I can get it back this way in the cube?
Hi guys, I'm looking for a media basket and fuge setup for a coralife biocube 29 I'm setting up. I'll take both, or either--Preferably both if buying used as its cheaper to ship from one location/the cost benefit of buying used is eaten up by shipping.
Thanks!
Hi all!
I have a 32-gallon biocube that my SO and I started. This is our very first tank! It's been cycled for a few months now. We have a firefish named Ember....get it?! A yellow watchman goby named Hamilton (like the watch brand), a pistol shrimp named Pistol Pete. Unfortunately, Hamilton...
I've got a Current USA Marine Orbit Pro LED light that I've seen a lot of differing opinions on what to set the min/max light intensities at.
Currently, my lights are set as follows:
White lights: min - 0% / max - 60%
Blue lights: min - 15% ./ max 90%
I've got a few zoas that seem to love...
Hello All!
My name is Jason, I'm an hour south of Detroit and I have been in and out of the hobby since high school. I recently ran a pretty successful 29-gallon Biocube until one day cleaning it I took the JBJ True Temp heater control probe out, got busy with my 4-year-old, never put it back...
I picked up this Biocube 32 last month as a slight upgrade over my previous 20 long. Life got in the way and the 20 long fell to the wayside. It was turned over to a FOWLR tank and someone else took care of the tank after I moved into my first house. Between the new job and being a first time...
So I have a 29 gallon biocube with AI Prime HD for lights, an Aqamai KPS power head 370-1050 gph.
I always come back to this question so my husband bought me this power head cause it has an app and I can change up the flow...
But....I have it set very low right now because my corals do not seem...
I have a 32 biocube. I set it up about a week and half ago, got all the items I needed from my local fish store. The biocube is stock. I have 19 pounds of live rock and 20 pounds of live sand, with a bag of carbon and bioballs in the filter, in the first chamber there is a “accu-therm heater...
Hello, my Oceanic biocube 29 finally bit the bullet a few days ago. I am now in the market either for a new hood (lights) or a whole new system. I don't have much knowledge in what would be a good tank or not. Evidently the one I currently own is not so great with filtering.I am wanting to go as...
Looking through at the Biocubes you all have makes me feel like mine is inadequate haha, but something to strive for I guess.
I changed out bioballs in the sump for new ones (I know there are better options, but thought with a few other mods it would be ok). I removed the cartridge filters and...
I am not sure if i have a problem yet or not but I was watching my emerald crab really go to town on my birds nest last night. I watched him pinch at the coral a lot then move one, and later he came back! I used a plastic arm to push him away the second time. I am sure he came back later in the...
Hello, I've had a 75 Gallon with 40G sump for the last 6 months. I have sold my house and now need to downgrade tanks, and sell/trade for credit any fish that I can't keep in the new tank.
I bought a CoraLife Biocube 32Gallon with LED hood etc...

#1 - David finally hooked me. This is the beginning of a long journey of the first system put together by a close friend, Chris Boehm. He moved on to other display systems and ended up passing it on to me.
It's over 5 years old, but has been revamped many times.
I'm not sure if the hardscape...
After not being able to sell my nanocube with a broken hood I decided to remove the trim and make it a bedroom tank. I already have a hydra 26 HD to put over it. Just waiting on a replacement light for the hydra as it's running over my 210. I'm planning on a large maroon clown from a friends...
Hey Reefers!
I decided on the AI Prime HD for my new light on my Biocube 29. Right now it is LPS/Softie Mixed tank. I am wanting to try an SPS frag once I get the Prime.
What settings with a similar setup are you guys running? Just want an idea so I am good to go once it gets here this week.

I am new to the hobby and decided to start small with the Coralife Biocube 32. I did jump into the hobby without really doing the research i normally do on a large purchase, but i sure have enjoyed the experience so far. I have made a few upgrades to the tank like a UV-filter and protein...
