I see what looks like a sponge in there, where is the filter floss? I think I may have to post a pic of mine, cause I think its different, and im stumped as to where I could put some filter material. can ya tell im new at this ;)

Pics would be great. I guess I can always toss a bag of carbon in the back for a short time if I need to. The filter floss you run all the time as well?

Also thinking about your post... I should run the cycle without the filter, but put the filter in after the cycle is over correct?

Drip tray meaning the Overflow tray? And thanks!

Hey guys, i'm setting up my new Biocube 8 and I have some questions. 1. Is it possible to fit a Fission Nano Skimmer in the 8 anywhere? I have it and it dosent seem like its going to fit anywhere. 2. I am going to be taking out the BioBalls from the middle chamber and putting in LR rubble...

wont cycling with already cured rock kill most of the good stuff on it?

im interested in teh rock, but im not cycled yet...

Just did a freshwater test last night, and everything looked good!! I may be moving the location of the tank in the next few days though. Im leaving for new york next weekend (wed nite-sunday actually). After I get back, ill be ordering some liverock online and curing it in the display tank. Do...

Thanks!

I just picked up a few Maki-Jet 600's. Whats the difference between setting them up with and without the air injector tube?

Well, it dried. I got about 5 inches of water in the tank. poked my head in the overflow chamber, and there was a very very slow leak. Its coming from the corner of the plexiglass that meets the bottom of the tank and the back wall. Please someone tell me that I can patch this without having...

I just finished gettiing my overflow in the tank with silicone. Was actually more annoying than I thought it would be. It looks more messy than I would like. This was the one part of building this tank that I was not looking foward to doing. At this point though, if it holds for the fresh...

Well, Ive been taking photos, but dont have any way at the moment of uploading them... Ill give a brief run down of the tank setup so far, and mind you, this is over the last year, bit by bit I got a used 40 gallon breeder with overflow and 38 gallon sump. Exactly what I was looking for. That...

when getting cured LR from SWF.com, how smelly is the "have to do it anyway" curing going to be. I am going to get my LR from here and cure it in my tank, i was just wondering if my roomate is going to kill me for it or not....

plastic kut is a saw blade im guessing? its interesting, every time things seem to be going well, I hit another challange. I have to say though, its making me totally fall in love with the final outcome of what im building.

ahhh, makes sense. Are there any other methods for bending other than that? I would rather not have to buy something I'm probably not going to use again.

No idea what that is.... Is it something that may be common in a friends shop? :)

Yea, I was kinda thinking that I as I was going along.... :( Well, Ok, I need, a sheet of Plexi, table saw, Dremel (or the table saw to make the teeth at the top). How do I go about bending the plexi?

OK, I cut the plexi-glass overflow box out of my old tank and im trying to clean it up for the new tank. From what I understand, I should get all the old silicone off to ensure a good clean surface to silicone into the new tank. So far, im cleaning the old stuff off with a razor blade, but...

ack, typo in my previous post... meant to write "PVC, ABS, CPVC" ...no idea what OVC is, lol.
