    Biocube LED's vs. AI Prime HD+?

    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...

    Has anyone made a mesh top for a BioCube HQI?

    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...

    Cube Build Advice, think I nailed it first try 32cube aquascape

    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?

    New York WTB Coralife Biocube 29 Intank basket and Fuge

    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!

    Suggested LED settings on Biocube 29

    Build Thread Biocube 32 Tank Journal

    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...

    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...

    AIO Build My Biocube 29

    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...

    Problem with Crabs?

    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...
