Hi all Im going to post some pics of my biocube from start to now.
First off I have had no problems what so ever. I took it slow and easy. Hell i didnt have my first fish in the tank till 2 months after it was set up. In the pics you will notice that there is quite a bit of algae growing on the glass this is because I have not had the time to go buy another razer to scrape it off. The maginet that i have is not strong enough for it.
I have not lost a coral yet. But my flower pot is on its way out. I bought it with out knowing what it was and what it needs. Needless to say i will not buy one again.
Anyways with the pics.
Start: 6 months ago I added a fish and a small zoo rock.(tank had been cycling for 2 months!)



5 Months ago I added a flower pot and a xeina.

3 months ago i added some mushrooms and fraged the xenia I also added another zoo rock.


And today I added this. I was told that it was a golden branching leather!



This is how much the zoos have grown!

And please dont mind the algae hahaha Ill clean that up as soon as i get a new razor.

My biocube 29 isn't even 6 months old, and I already bought a 75 gal.

Hope your pockets are nice and deep! Everything looks great! Have you done any mods, or is yours pretty much stock?

Ya I know... I have herd/read of people going and buying hundreds of $ in live stock to have it all die as the tank was not cycled or what not.
I have always loved reef tanks though and wanted one for a long time. This seems to be working out good. I think the next one that im going to get will be 150 gal+ though.
And the cube i got is bone stock! :) 14 gal with about 22lbs of live rock and the biocube proteen skimmer as well as a hefty bag of Purogen.
