The sponge was left there the first time and then I took it out- same thing. I set up the pump, attached to the return , took the top floor out along with the sponge, bio balls and media and plugged it in :(

YESSSS my return is pumping it back in too fast. When I looked into the back , the left and middle chamber are both basically empty and the right is still filled. I waited a few minutes and nothing happened. I then poured some of the tank water into the first two chambers to see and it just...

When I turn the filter off- it does fill back up. Yes the water is at the right height on the right :(

Okay so I set up my new biocube with the sand and water from my 55 gallon. I took out everything from the back like Nissan says to in his fuge thread. I plug in the pump and it sucks the water out from the back but never re-fills it so it is just back there sucking air. I turned it off -...

Bump! Can I just use the sand in my 55gal ?

lol thanks! What type of sand do any of you suggest- I actually forget what is in my 55gal tank now. How many lbs?

Awesome! Thanks! I was going to put my lr from my 55 gal in there. I have about 75lbs so I doubt all of it will fit in there. So I will be picking my favorite pieces. I will be adding pics as soon as I get it and start :)

So I am downsizing because of having not a ton of time and moving into a smaller place. I have a 55gal tank right now and decided on the 29 gal biocube :) So what do I need now? New heater, sand??? What else? I am going to put in my one powerhead in there. Now for lighting- is the stock...

So I went out today and looked at the biocube and the nanocube. I like the biocube better- need that extra 5gal for some reason :) So here is my question- can I convert the back into a fuge like the nano??? I have no idea how to do this and need some help please :)

My family member is fine with me leaving the tank here for 2 weeks after the move- setting up the new tank at my place with old sand and water and then doing the transfer of the fish and rocks. Does that sounds like the best plan? Also- how should I move them? I have read some threads but I am...

I will def check CL. I will def keep fish in a bucket separately from the live rock, lol. Now my next question.... I am moving out of a duplex that I am renting from my mother- a family member is moving into the duplex I am in now and I am moving out end of september. Do I buy the nano and...

No more then 20minutes :)

Okay I will admit- I did some digging and already started stalking your diary... Thanks for the link- as I do really like the nano and might be leaning towards it. I realized that I don't need the stand as I have a GREAT side table that is heavy beyond heavy- nice area around it so my cats can...

Now I have been reading about each one and have heard different reviews- Do some of you re-do the filtration because it gets clogged? That is what I read..I am fine with re-doing it, but would like to know how!

haha thanks!! I really like the biocube and that is what I am leaning towards.

With or w/o stand. I think I want a stand for it..and the bf is horrible at building things, so I would have to buy one. I am looking around and found the 29gal for about $500 w/stand brand new at a store website..but a local site had it slightly used with stand for $200.

I actually think I only have one goby now :( Can't find the other one but will find out during the move, lol. I would go for the 29 gal, I think the 14 is too small for me right now. I really like the biocube----ALOT!!! I just gotta find a 29 gal for the price of a brand new 14 gal- off to...

Right now I have a 55 gal tank- but I feel it is too big for the apartment we are moving to and I have been neglecting it- not water changes, feedings, etc. But just not adding on to it - coral, more rock, etc. Stock list: 1 algae blenny 2 engineer gobies 1 PJ cardinal 2 clowns some snails and...

Yes- only RO water....I will keep all of these tips in mind- thank you all!!

haha it's a 55GAL. Wow- and I am in tears now with my algae- I would run and never look back with that...how did that happen? I keep hearing how awesome these sea hares are but they look so ugly...maybe I should suck it up and get one?
