Hey Guys

So, I've been hovering around these fourms for quite a while now. All you guys have gave me great info from your threads and what not
I think this is a great site and a place where you can really enjoy this great hobby.Ok so after learning all this helpful info, I decided to purchase a 14 gallon Biocube. I have not moded it at all, although I plan on using Nissian's helpful thread to make a refugium in the back chamber. I plan on doing this very soon when I get my halide. What fixure and bulb do you recommend? I want a light blue color.
My Stocklist is..........
Fish: 1 Percula Clown
Inverts: Many snails and Hermits
Coral: Many zoas,frogspawn,leathers,rics,mushrooms,and xeinia(I don't know how to spell the last coral)I plan on getting montis and acropora when I get my light.
Ok so here is my tank( don't mind the glass I will clean it later)

just cause you have the aqualight doesnt mean it changes the bulb color. remember its the bulb k rating which changes it
sunpods are a charm so are aqualight. read about it. see what you like.
