I'm debating on whether or not to get a bigger Biocube (currently have an 8g) or a Nanocube. I looked into the Red Sea Max's and those are way to expensive. lol. What do you all think?

i have a 24g nanocube and a 8g biocube, i like both systems very much. what size are you thinking about? if i was to do it all over i would get the jbj nanocube 28g. i think it is the best value. it comes with a 150 mh and protein skimmer. but i did see on some other sites that jbj is releasing the same tank but with a quad pc instead of the halide. it should be a lot cheaper. i think the nanocubes have the most bang for your buck. if you search some sites you will find some deals that you get the stand for free
. i hope this helps.

i think that u should get the new Nano Cube 28-gallon CF-QUAD. it looks pretty sweet. i have the regular 24g deluxe and i love it but this one just looks awesome!!!

I've got the 28g HQI Nano Cube.
Good product so far (been set up since early March). Quiet and you can't beat the HQI lighting.
Negatives about the JBJ 28g are:
Skimmer is weak and badly designed, you need to remove it to open the lid which really sucks.
No internal timers for the lights: sucks having to supply timer for the LED and the Halide (only so many spots on the power strip), you could run the LED all the time but I think the tank should be all dark for a period of time each night (JMHO).
The good outweighs the bad so I highly recomend the product and if your upgrading get something with halide lighting
