I will keep the updates of my tank in this new thread, only that I realized that a 29 gal is kind of limited and I am thinking on getting a bigger one. (start saving)
I have received really good comments, please keep advising if you see anything out of place.
By the way I returned the yellow wrase and got a purple firefish. Today I am picking up a royal gramma.
And finally after a long time my Nitrates are 10

your light looks like its shinning on everything, perfectdarks tank doesnt have her lights do that, Oh and watch out because ive looked at your old thread and it looks like your next to a window.

thanks for the comment. There is a window about 10 ft away but not direct sun comes through it, is it too close?
In regard the shinning, could it be from the pics? I take them with my phone.
Or are you refering to the top of the water? I have not modify the ones that came with the Biocube, should I?

just make sure the window is always closed, you dont want a breeze that can shift the temp of your tank. oh and i was talking about the glare on the top of your rocks, but i think thats because you have your rocks in the center and they are high up, unlike perfectdarks tank, check out the first pics on here thread here https://www.saltwaterfish.com/vb/showthread.php?t=265592
oh and your camera could have something to do with it.

Could someone help me to figure where does my Royal Gramma went?
It is three days now and looks that it vanished. I have looked around all rocks, in the three chambers in the back and all around the Biocube without any luck.
I never keep the top open. Mystery???.
My clownfish and firefish are just fine.

Did you not like your yellow wrasse? Sorry to thread jack but I was considering getting one.
Tank looks great BTW!

I liked it because it was pretty active and it was the fish that went through the correct set up cycle of my tank, but after reading some information; some of the advises start to became a reality.
First it start growing really fast, doubled its size in two months and also it start getting aggresive with the firefish and the shrimps specially at feeding time.
No problems or doing anything that I noticed to the corals.
