Saltwater And Reef Tank Builds This forum is for members to show off their saltwater tank and reef tank builds! When setting up a new tank system, its a great idea to post a thread here for several reasons. You'll get advice from fellow aquarists, and the threads are great to look back on in a few years!

Default Maxheadrooms 29G BioCube

I bought this in Jan of '08 and I love this tank! Bio Balls were taken out and replaced with the CPR Aquatics SR3 skimmer. I also did the 144W light upgrade thru Nanotuners, but only left that light on for about 8 months till I put my 150W sunpod over it. Here's some pics, starting with the oldest first:





Skimmer:





First mistake, can you spot it?

The LTA outgrew the tank pretty fast after I upgraded the lights, so I had to get rid of it. My CF had to find a new home:





She's kinda weird and likes to sleep laying on her side.






It was around this time when I had to move. And my tank crashed. here's the thing you never want to see, you might want to close your eyes:














































The pic above was taken on my birthday. Crappy b-day for me!!!!!
This was the worst part:















Over $1500 gone. The scoly, WWC watermelon chalice, tyree warcorals, rainbow monti, ect, ect. The tank was built back up after that, but I didn't tale any pics for a while. I also started a new tank (90G DT with a 60G sump). I still new a new FTS for the BioCube, but here's the most recent shots:


PPE favia:




Blastos with some plating coraline algae:





Un-named chalices:












Purple rimmed green monti grown from a 1/10" chip:





Lunar Eclipse:





Suncoral:





And my hungry lobo:
