Aaron's 14gal Biocube/Quarantine

I thought I'd start a new thread and put a few items up regarding my 14 gal Biocube. Currently, it will serve as a mini-reef and be my quarantine tank. Here are a few pics of what's currently in it.

Here's a full tank shot:


Here's the Devil's hand:


Here's the Colt Coral:


And you can all see the Kenya Tree in the foreground.

Enjoy!

Nice looking mini-reef.... Looks like the frags are doing good.

always liked the lil cubes

nice lookin tank!

Thanks Win and Blue. I have tried just about everything I can thing of to get that big green mushy on the left hand side in the bottom to stay put somewhere else. I tried a rubber band, I tried a toothpick....guess I'm going to have to get the ole glue out. He seems happy right where he is now, so I may leave him alone for a while.

One other question for all you reefers out there. I talked to Jason and he is running some chemi-pure in a sock in his small biocube. I did some research and that seems like a pretty good idea on these small systems. Is there anywhere in town that sells the stuff? I looked at Petco and Petsmart, but didn't see any. Did I just overlook it?

I looked everywhere too. The only place that has it is wetpets but it's priced too high and is not the elite type that also removes phosphates.

So... I'd hop onto a group buy next time to save 5 dollar shipping on a 10 dollar item and buy the 6.5oz chemi-pure elite.

Yuma - try the wedding veil method. I have a bunch of the veil material if you need a piece. I used it for a mushroom I got from Grim and it latched on in just a couple days. Right where I wanted it!!

+1. You can't glue mushrooms down.

yuppp same applies to ricordias too

So, fan's got to be incredibly loud after a power surge last week, so I ordered a couple of new ones and installed them tonight. Standard 50mmx50mmx15mm computer fans. Cost me all of twelve bucks to get two with ball bearings, super quiet. They had the extra RPM wire on them, so I just removed that and rewired to the existing plugs. Got them all installed tonight and I must say it is MUCH better!!

Here's a new pic of the Colt from BigBlue....growing like a weed.

You can also put some rubble in a container put the mushroom in there and put a lid on it. sink it to the bottom of your tank. Make sure you put a top it Works well for me it will attach itself in bout a week.
